Single-cycle master
LM-41 - Medicine and surgery
The Master's degree programme in Medicine contemplates 360 CFU overall, spread out over six years, of which 60 must be earned as part of coursework aimed at developing specific professional acumen. The programme is intended to provide the scientific bases, and the necessary practical skills and theory required under Directive 75/363/EEC to practice medicine, as well as the methodology and experience to engage in continuing medical education after graduation; it also instils professional, decision-making, and operational autonomy thanks to an educational programme that takes a holistic approach to the health of all persons, sick and well, and includes training in assessing the chemical-physical, biological, and social environment of the patient.
The specific objectives for the pre-clinical coursework are set, on a priority basis, based on the following criteria:
· relevance of each objective within the framework of human biology;
· the preparation provided by each objective in terms of specific clinical issues.
The specific objectives for the clinical coursework are set, on a priority basis, based on the following criteria:
· epidemiological prevalence, urgency of the care needed, possibility of providing care, severity, educational value;
· promoting clinical work through healthcare facilities, at least for the hospital wards;
· improving patient interactions, including the physician's bedside manner;
· assessing adverse events and any other issue relating to the use of medicine (Pharmacovigilance) to ensure a favourable risk/benefit ratio for the community;
· assessing gender-based differences (Gender Medicine), with the ultimate goal of ensuring all persons, whether male or female, receive the best possible care.
These objectives integrate the five Dublin descriptors (European descriptors) with those proposed by the International Medical Education (IIME) and the "The TUNING Project (Medicine) - Learning Outcomes/Competences for Undergraduate Medical Education in Europe". Furthermore, they align perfectly with the requirements of the "core curriculum" for the Master's degree in Medicine as proposed on a national level by the Conference of Italian Master's Degree Programme Presidents.

The degree in Medicine allows the graduate to sit for the State Exam to be licensed to practice medicine. Once the graduate has passed the exam, they can enrol in the professional association as a licensed, non-specialised physician. Licensed, non-specialised physicians are eligible for the Post-Graduate Programmes in Medicine and Medical Services (4-to-5-year programme) and the Internal Medicine Programme (3-year programme).
Licensed physicians can practice medicine in a variety of professional roles, whether through clinical practice, healthcare policy and management, or the biomedical sciences. Potential avenues for employment include:
a) becoming a National Health Service doctor, or working with a public or state agency (post-graduate degree in medicine required);
b) research in clinical or pre-clinical practice, as part of a university career, or through work with a research entity (a PhD is recommended);
c) working as a freelance professional (post-graduate degree required to practice as a specialist, as well as completion of a training programme in Internal Medicine to practice as a licensed, non-specialty physician).
The practice of medicine is regulated by Italian law.

The single-cycle Master's Degree Programme in Medicine at the Vialba teaching centre encourages periods of training overseas and offers assistance to those who qualify. The number of applications for the Erasmus and Erasmus Mundus programme continues to grow. Before submitting the Learning Agreement to the Erasmus Coordinator, each applicant will have the possibility of discussing his or her study plan with the President of the Degree Programme. This practice allows students to reap the most advantage from their experience at an international university. Marks earned at a Spanish university are transferred using a conversion table published in the Regulation for the Degree Programme. To secure transfer credit for academic work completed in any other European Union countries, please refer to the ECTS conversion table. The Erasmus+ programme offers a wide range of options in Europe. Most students choose rotations in European countries, Spain and Portugal in particular. That said, some choose to study abroad at universities in the U.S., enjoying fulfilling experiences in clinical and research activities. Based on these positive findings, the single-cycle Master's Degree Programme in Medicine at the Vialba teaching centre has recently joined the AAMC-GHLO programme, expanding opportunities for international exchanges. GHLO facilitates collaborations between medical schools in the U.S., and in the rest of the world. Transfer credit is guaranteed thanks to bilateral agreements.
Clinical rotations and research activities are the areas where students on an international rotation get the most benefit. Therefore, the best years for study abroad are Year III through Year VI. Sixth-year rotations are generally intended for writing one's thesis.
Each year, our teaching centre also welcomes international students, mainly from Germany and countries in Eastern Europe. They appreciate the long-standing tradition of academic study in our programmes, and the hospitality typical of their Italian colleagues. The greatest obstacle to attracting more international students is the difficulty of securing accommodations at reasonable rates. We are working hard to find solutions to this problem.

Enrolment
Admission into the programme is capped, at a national level, pursuant to Law no. 264 of 2 August 1999. Admission into the Master's degree programme in Medicine will be based on a written entrance exam (60-question, multiple-choice, "select one answer" exam), which will be given on the same day for all public universities in Italy.
The subject areas, and therefore the acumen, needed to be considered for the programme include: general knowledge, biology, chemistry, physics, genetics, and maths. Students must also demonstrate critical-thinking skills. For further details and/or information, please visit the website for the Ministry of Education and Research (MUR).
Candidates who score at or above twenty (20) points will have a place on the national ranking, subject to the enrolment cap.
To be permitted to sit for the entrance exam and, provided the student appears on the ranking, to be allowed to enrol in the Medicine, a candidate must have an upper-level secondary-school diploma, or similar diploma earned overseas and deemed equivalent.
Those who place (following the admission test) high enough in the ranking must enrol in the programme.
Additional learning requirements (OFA):
Students admitted with a total point score under 45/90 and with a score of less than 13.5/27 on those questions assessing a student's understanding of biology, will be assigned additional learning requirements (OFA). These prerequisites may be met through specifically assigned remedial work. Any failure to pass the OFA will make it impossible for the student to sit for the Biology and Genetics exam. Timely notice of the various courses will be posted to: https://medicina-vialba.cdl.unimi.it/it
Additional Learning Requirements (OFA): English language, B2 level:
To pass the English-language exam contemplated under the study plan, English-language proficiency at a B2 level under the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CFER) is required. Such proficiency may be demonstrated as follows:
- by sending a language certificate, earned within three years prior to the date of submission, at a B2 level or higher (for the list of language certificates recognised by the University, please review: https://www.unimi.it/it/studiare/competenze-linguistiche/placement-test-test-di-ingresso-e-corsi-di-inglese). Certificates must be uploaded at enrolment, or sometime thereafter, to: http://studente.unimi.it/uploadCertificazioniLingue;
- through a Placement Test, administered by SLAM during Year I, from October to December. Should a student fail the test, he/she must take the course provided by SLAM.
The Placement Test is mandatory for all students who fail to submit a valid certificate.
Those who do not take the Placement Test by December, or who fail to pass the final exam for the course within six (6) attempts, must obtain an outside (paid) certification by the programme year contemplated for their exam in English.
