BA/BS in Medicina

Medicine is a programme of the Faculty of Medicine at the Universidad de Concepción. Students build the knowledge and technical skills needed to maintain, improve, protect and restore people's health, within an ethical and scientific framework. Training combines basic health sciences with clinical practice in a wide range of teaching hospitals, and it prepares graduates for postgraduate medical specialisation. Admission is through the national PAES process, with weighted scores that combine school grades, class ranking and the PAES tests. The programme page lists the weightings, the number of places and the recent cutoff scores for each campus. Graduates receive the academic degree and the professional title listed on the programme page. Students follow the study plan published by the university, and the page links to the curriculum, accreditation and graduate employment information from the national higher education information system. The page also summarises the fields where graduates work, and applicants should read it together with the official admission calendar. Incoming students must show at least a first hepatitis B vaccine dose and commit to completing the rest.
