QMEP 2016

This year’s program was one of the biggest, with 33 students in attendance – 90 per cent of whom were Qatari. All the students were nominated by their schools for the explorer program based on their academic scores and interest in medicine. The two weeks at WCM-Q included sessions about research, strategies for being accepted onto a medical degree, and time management, along with more traditional medical lectures like pharmacology and adolescent health.
