| description | Background and objective: Educational centers are always facing to basic changes in all levels. Students, as the new workforce making their society’s future, can provide valuable opinions about educational programs and their effects on the learning process, which will be very important for educational centers. This study aimed to investigate the viewpoint of medical students during their internship program regarding to the clinical application of basic sciences courses at Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences in 2010.
Materials and methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 108 clinical medical students were randomly selected. Data were collected through a questionnaire and basic sciences courses were classified into three groups with low, average and high applications. The extracted data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and Chi-square test.
Results: Out of 108 clinical medical students who completed the questionnaires, 62 (57.4%) of them were aged 26-40 and 46 (42.6%) were aged 23-25 years. 48 (44.4%) of them were female and 60 (55.6%) were male. The course of pathology acquired high application score, anatomy of limbs and trunk, head and neck anatomy, neuro-anatomy, physiology, specialized English, immunology and parasitology obtained average application score, health, entomology, medical physics, embryology, mycology, epidemiology, genetics, bacteriology, psychology, histology, virology, biochemistry and nutrition obtained the low application score.
Conclusion: The findings of the present study indicated a relative isolation and lack of coordination between basic sciences courses and clinical periods. This can be used to create changes in future educational programs with regard to the needs of the physicians. |
