He explained that there is a forum made up of 25 deans and directors from all over the country where, in northern Argentina, UNCAUS is the only university that has its physical space and rectory in a city that is not a strategically located provincial capital, such as the Presidency. Roque Sáenz Peña, also expressed “we are very proud to be part of a university with a federal concept,” he said.
When explaining the particularities of the career, he expressed that “the profile of a graduated doctor with a social and community perspective is sought, rather than with an individual perspective.” In addition, “we introduce clinical simulation as a training tool and professional internships, which bring students as close as possible to all the skills they have to develop later as a professional.”
He also explained that “the Medicine degree lasts 6 years and it is important to take advantage of this opportunity to emphasize the fact that an accreditation process for all the Medicine degrees in the country began last year and ours is also included in that process. Bolanos said.
He also added that a new study plan was created and two plans are currently in force, the previous plan that was from 2013 and the new plan that is from 2022, where all the entrants of this year are in that new plan. ”. He also summarized that “currently the first and second years are already a 2022 plan and next year the third year of that plan will be enabled and so on until the previous plan is completely replaced by this new one.”
Referring to the study plans, he explained that “this new design was created by the need to adapt to modern medical education and also by some inconsistencies that we believed we might solve and we improved the correlative system, where we incorporated regional languages, diagnosis by images, palliative care and problematic consumption. We think that it is a better plan and probably in the future there will be another, but for the moment this plan works for undergraduate training, so we are very excited” commented the director.
In addition, he remarked that the internships of the students carried out in the field provide them with tools that will later be useful to develop as professionals, and “for this reason the idea is that they are developed in the first, second and third level of care and in different scenarios,” Bolaño explained.
He also commented that the University is scheduled to sign an agreement with the High Complexity Institute of Formosa, which has access to liver transplants together with the Perrando Pediatric Hospital, so that students go through all these instances and have complementary training.
An exchange agreement was made with the University of Medicine of Mar del Plata and it is expected that it will also be signed with the University of Nacional del Litoral. In September, the first Medicine students will go to Mar del Plata for their professional practices, at the Community Hospital, where they will be in the highly complex part of pediatrics and gynecology. “This allows a special look towards the social to be developed”, highlighted the director.
