ST. GEORGE'S UNIVERSITY • School of Medicine 2010-2011

2010-2011

This is St. George’s University, an education that leads by
example. Over 33 years ago, the University broke ground
by founding the first truly international center of medical
education. Creating this new opportunity gave our charter
students, and all those who have followed, the chance to
benefit from an international curriculum that not only helps
students become doctors, but inspires them to become
examples of all the great things medicine can do. To date,
St. George’s University has graduated nearly 9,000
physicians who practice worldwide and whose good
works are testaments to this belief.

From the Chancellor
St. George’s University School of Medicine prepares students for the lifelong
study and practice of medicine. In addition to the essential knowledge and skills
of practicing professionals, the program forwards the highest goals of health
care professionals. The international character of our faculty, student body,
and locations on three continents provides our graduates with an experiential
education consonant with our modern world. The Doctor of Medicine (MD)
program promotes the understanding that research into the basic sciences and
clinical medicine is an essential feature of health care. The establishment of our
new Medical Student Research Initiative provides the exceptional student with
the opportunities to develop into a physician-scientist.
The commitment of the University to research underlies its affiliation with
Windward Islands Research and Education Foundation (WINDREF) and its

support of our Master of Public Health degree program. This commitment
promotes studies in a wider range of health care fields and preventive medicine,
and an understanding into the cause, epidemiology, and treatment of diseases
important to the communities of the Windward Islands and the greater
Caribbean.
Throughout its history, part of our mission expressed a responsibility to improve
the health care of Grenada. Over the decades, this has taken many forms.
Presently, St. George’s University School of Medicine is planning on developing
postgraduate training programs in Grenada to train family medicine and general
practice physicians. Many of these physicians will be graduates of our School.
We believe this will enhance the delivery of primary care on our Island and
improve the lives of all Grenadians.

Medical education at St. George’s University begins on the island of Grenada
or on the campus of Northumbria University in the United Kingdom, and is
completed with clinical training primarily conducted in Clinical Centers and
affiliated teaching hospitals in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The School of Medicine is listed with the World Health Organization, and is
fully recognized and approved by the government of Grenada to confer the
degree of Doctor of Medicine upon students who fulfill the School’s admission
requirements and complete the prescribed curriculum.
Our Standards
In 1996, the US Department of Education reviewed the standards of medical
education in 30 countries for the purpose of student loans. Grenada was one
of four countries approved during the initial review; the United Kingdom,
Australia, and Canada were the other three. Other countries have subsequently
been approved. Our program in medicine has been approved by the states
of New York, New Jersey, California, and Florida for clinical training of our
students in Clinical Centers and affiliated hospitals. The School has additional
affiliation agreements with hospitals in other states and in the United Kingdom.
The Doctor of Medicine degree from SGU complies with the current criteria of
the UK GMC for what constitutes an acceptable primary medical qualification
for the purpose of obtaining registration with the UK GMC. SGUSOM is one
of the most reviewed and approved international medical schools in the world.
The Doctor of Medicine program at St. George’s University has been accredited
and/or approved by many external bodies, perhaps more than any program in
medicine in the world. St. George’s University School of Medicine is accredited
by the Government of Grenada, and the Caribbean Accreditation Authority
for Education in Medicine and Health Professions (CAAM-HP). St. George’s
University School of Medicine is approved by the New York State Education
Department (NYSED) and the New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners of the
State of New Jersey for the purpose of conducting clinical training programs in
those states. In addition, the School of Medicine is recognized by the Medical
Board of California, and approved by the Florida Commission on Independent
Education of the Florida Department of Education. The National Committee on
Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation (of the USDOE), in conjunction
with the approval of the State of New York, has deemed Grenada’s accreditation
standards to be comparable to those utilized by the United States.
St. George’s University graduates have been licensed to practice medicine in
over 35 countries and in all 50 states of the United States. As with all educational
institutions, periodic reviews by the appropriate agencies determine the
continuation of such approvals.

Our Mission
To provide an international, culturally diverse environment in which students learn
the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for postgraduate training in the health
professions while being inspired to develop compassion, curiosity, tolerance,
and commitment to patients and society, dedication to lifelong learning, and an
understanding of the vital role of research in health care.
School of Medicine Programs
With its dedication to a universal model of education,
the School of Medicine at St. George’s University offers
a comprehensive program of study to accommodate the
academic backgrounds and professional aspirations of
students from all over the world.
Doctor of Medicine Degree Program
Students wishing to achieve the Doctor of Medicine
degree may enter the premedical program during one
of three premedical years, or the four-year Doctor of
Medicine degree program beginning with the first year of
Basic Medical Sciences, which is when most students from
North America begin. Students who begin their studies
in the premedical program must meet the program’s
academic standards to be promoted into the first year of
the four-year medical program. Students pursuing the
Doctor of Medicine degree will study in Grenada and will
complete clinical training in one of our affiliated centers
in the United States or the United Kingdom.
Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program
The School of Medicine offers an option for medical
students to spend the first year of the four-year Doctor
of Medicine degree program on the campus of
Northumbria University in the United Kingdom as part of
the Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program. A Diploma
of Higher Education in Biomedical Sciences is awarded
by the School of Applied Sciences at Northumbria
University upon successful completion of the first year.
Students continue the second year of the medical
program in Grenada and complete clinical training in
one of our affiliated centers in the United States or the
United Kingdom.
MD/Dual Degree Programs
Students pursuing a Doctor of Medicine degree at
St. George’s University may simultaneously earn
other degrees.
Bachelor of Science/MD
Those who enter the University in the early stages of
the premedical program (the first or second year of the
premedical program) may earn a bachelor’s degree
upon acceptance into and completion of the first year of
the four-year medical program if the qualifications for a
bachelor’s degree are met.
MD/Master of Science and
MD/Master of Public Health
Students who wish to enhance their educational
experience and broaden their career opportunities may
simultaneously earn a graduate degree in Public Health,
Anatomy, Microbiology and its related concentrations,
or scientific research in specific disciplines. These dual
graduate degrees require students to study for at least
one extra term in Grenada.
MD/Master of Business Administration
Students who wish to focus on managing community
wellness and broaden their focus of study may
simultaneously earn a Master of Business Administration
degree in Multi-Sector Health Management. This dual
degree option requires an additional semester of study
to complete the basic medical sciences curriculum.
Independent Graduate
Degree Programs
Through its Graduate Studies Program, the School of
Medicine offers master’s degree programs in Public
Health, Microbiology, and Anatomy. The School also
offers PhD programs in Microbiology and Anatomy.

Doctor of Medicine Degree Programs
Premedical Program
The premedical program is delivered on the True Blue
campus in Grenada, West Indies. Students accepted into
the premedical program have been accepted into the
academic track to the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree.
These years of study incorporate basic undergraduate
courses in reading, writing, and mathematics with the
necessary science foundation courses for a well-rounded
education. The premedical program curriculum is
designed as a firm foundation for the advanced studies
offered later in the four-year Doctor of Medicine
degree program. The Committee on Admission places
the applicants into the first, second, or third year of
the premedical program according to the applicant’s
academic background. Those who enter the first or
second year of the premedical program begin with
courses in Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Physics, and
also include General Education and Arts and Humanities
courses. Mastery of English and study skills are also
emphasized.
The third year of the premedical program consists of
upper-level Biomedical and Behavioral Science courses
designed to strengthen students’ premedical sciences
foundation and learning development program to
enhance the opportunity for success in advanced
medical studies. The Supplemental Instruction Model
of peer learning, as well as peer review groups and
mentoring are offered for Science courses taught within
the premedical program. Throughout all years of the
premedical program, there is a strong focus on study
skills development and academic enhancement.
Students who complete the premedical program with
a grade point average (GPA) of 3.2 or better and pass
the Premedical Science Comprehensive Examination
(PMSCE) are promoted into the first year of the fouryear
Doctor of Medicine degree program. Students
who do not hold a first degree and who wish to obtain
a bachelor’s degree in the course of their studies may
be eligible to do so. Evaluation of prior educational
background will determine eligibility and appropriate
placement within the BS/MD program.
Preprofessional Development
During the premedical program, students may participate
in the Preprofessional Experience Program (PEP) or
the Community Linked Research and Development
Program (CLRDP). These programs have been designed
to encourage students in the premedical program to
become more informed about their intended profession
from an early point in their medical studies. These
programs support career and personal development
through participation in health fairs, physician
shadowing, health education, advocacy programs,
community health programs, and research.
Medical Program
The program for the four-year Doctor of Medicine
(MD) degree consists of a 157-week curriculum. Most
students complete the program in four calendar years.
The program is divided into nine terms of 16 to 18
weeks each, requiring five academic years of study. Each
academic year consists of 32 to 36 weeks. During the first
two years, which cover the Basic Sciences, students study
on the True Blue campus in Grenada. Students are also
given the option to enroll in the Keith B. Taylor Global
Scholars Program, which offers the first year of Basic
Sciences on the campus of Northumbria University in
the United Kingdom. During the last two clinical years,
students move on to study at the University’s Clinical
Centers and affiliated hospitals in the United States and/
or the United Kingdom.
Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program
The Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program provides
the option for medical students to spend the first year
of the four-year Doctor of Medicine degree program on
the campus of Northumbria University in the United
Kingdom. Students studying at Northumbria University
follow the same course of study as their counterparts at
St. George’s University in Grenada, and receive the same
high-quality medical education and support services.
Upon successful completion of the program at
Northumbria University, students continue to Grenada
where they conclude the Basic Sciences phase of their
education.
According to a recent study released in the
journal Academic Medicine, Grenada was ranked
#1 in USMLE Step One and Step Two/CK in the
Caribbean for the highest first-time pass rate
among all countries with medical schools in the
Caribbean over the past 15 years. Grenada – with
St. George’s University School of Medicine as the
only medical school in Grenada – had an 84.4%
pass rate in Step One, outperforming the other
countries that had an average pass rate of 49.9%
during the same 15-year period.

The Basic Sciences
The first two years of the Doctor of Medicine degree program
concentrate on the traditional basic science disciplines.
Laboratory experience is an integral part of these first
two years, along with small group discussions designed for
problem-based learning and early integration of Basic Sciences
into the clinical experience.
Clinical skills begin in the first term with various Basic Sciences
courses teaching specific components of clinical skills. Part of
gross anatomy focuses on surface anatomy and living anatomy,
which is a basis of much of physical diagnosis. Physical
diagnosis continues in the second term in neuroscience and
physiology. Clinical skills taught in the fourth term is a formal
segment on communication skills and physical diagnosis,
including signs and symptoms. In Term 5, the Department
of Clinical Skills teaches Introduction to Clinical Medicine,
which involves visits to the Grenada General Hospital, as well
as small groups on campus to discuss history taking, physical
examination, and generating a problem list for a given patient.
The gross anatomy laboratory in Grenada is amply supplied
with cadavers and the new microbiology, pathology, and
histology laboratories have extensive collections of microscopic
and gross preparations. In the Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars
Program, the anatomy labs at Northumbria University use
Doctor of Medicine Degree Programs
17

Doctor of Medicine Degree Programs
plastinated cadavers, whole and part, which are specially
prepared to utilize the latest, state-of-the-art preservation
technologies. Labs are set up to utilize our up-to-date array of
audio/visual and computerized materials in all subjects.
Molecular genetics, cell biology, immunology, and
neuroscience are emphasized within a framework of
traditional disciplines such as anatomy, physiology,
pharmacology, and pathology. In Term 5, students enroll in
courses in pharmacology and pharmacokinetics, and also
courses in pathophysiology that review all of the basic sciences
comprehensively in a clinical context under each organ
system. A new course has been added called Basic Sciences
Foundation for Clinical Reasoning, which will be taught in
a modified team-based learning setup where students would
be actively recapitulating concepts of basic sciences to solve
clinical problems. The Basic Sciences courses use didactic
lectures, laboratory instruction, supplemental instruction,
case-based learning, question-based reviews, small group
tutorials, peer teaching, and computer-assisted instruction.
Basic Sciences and Clinical faculty present clinical correlations
throughout all five terms. The School of Medicine offers a
series of courses entitled Medicine in Society, which is taught
throughout the first three terms. These courses focus on
gender, ethnic, and behavioral considerations affecting disease
treatment and prevention, including psychosocial, cultural,
occupational, and environmental factors. Medicine in Society
is made up of the following courses:
Term 1: Bioethics and the Professional: Medicine in Society I
Term 2: Topics in Community and Preventive Medicine:
Medicine in Society II
Term 3: MODULE: Behavioral Sciences and Medicine
In addition, electives are offered to qualified students by
various departments in the Basic Sciences. The School’s
curriculum emphasizes the international aspects of medical
education by providing students with the opportunity to visit
local hospitals and clinics on the island of Grenada. Student
participation in community health research projects is also
encouraged.
In order to assess medical knowledge, the University requires
that all students must sit the Basic Science Comprehensive
Examination I (BSCE I) at the end of their first academic year,
and the BSCE II near the completion of the Basic Sciences. In
order to assess clinical skills, the University requires all students
to take the Objective Structured Practical Examination during
their first year and Objective Structured Clinical Examination
towards the end of their second year.
The Clinical Years
The St. George’s University approach to clinical education
provides students with the opportunity to learn medicine in
some of the best and best-known hospitals in the world.
Located in the United States and the United Kingdom, some
of these hospitals have been designated by the University as
Clinical Centers. A Clinical Center is a hospital or group of
hospitals able to provide at least four of the five core rotations,
train 80–100 students at all times, and offer sub-internships,
primary care, and elective rotations. The Clinical Centers allow
students to complete all of their clinical training at one site if
they wish.
The clerkships at these hospitals conform to the curriculum,
course descriptions, and educational goals of St. George’s
University School of Medicine, and are monitored carefully
through site visits and faculty meetings. All core rotations
and sub-internships must be taken only in those hospitals
with which the University has an active, written affiliation
agreement, and in which there are appropriate St. George’s
University clinical faculty members. In these hospitals, there
exist Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education
(ACGME)–approved residency training programs (or their
British equivalents) in the subjects to be studied. Any other
hospital in which electives are taken must also have approved
postgraduate programs in the areas of training offered.
In the Clinical Years, students are taught by over 1,000
clinicians. In addition to clinical professors, the School of
Medicine appoints a Director of Medical Education at every
Clinical Center and affiliated hospital, and Clerkship Directors
in each of the core clinical specialties studied there. Site visits
from the Office of Clinical Studies to affiliated hospitals occur
regularly. This allows the School of Medicine administration
to meet with students and faculty throughout the Clinical
Years. Departmental meetings are held at least twice a year
to maintain and improve the strength of the departmental
structure and to support ongoing evaluation of the curriculum,
program delivery, evaluation, and testing procedures.
In the Clinical Years, students are taught by an educational
method based on the practical experience found in hospitals
and clinics under careful supervision by practicing physicians.
The knowledge acquired in the Basic Sciences serves as a basis
for the facts and concepts necessary to understand the practice
of modern medicine. In the Clinical Years, students
develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to
continue into postgraduate training. For all core rotations, the
University has required reading assignments and the hospitals
offer small group teaching sessions, conferences, and lectures.
Clinical skills introduced in Grenada now become a major
component of students’ education. In the hospital, students
are involved in the care of patients and develop diagnostic
decision-making, history, physical examination, and test
interpretation skills. Students learn to communicate with
patients, their families, and other health care workers, and are
expected to grow into their roles as professionals.
During the Clinical Years, we emphasize responsibility,
maturity, and compassion as important attributes in the
development of professional excellence. Students are expected
18

to learn how to conduct themselves in the professional role of
physician and are judged on their ability to take responsibility,
relate to and work harmoniously with professional colleagues,
exhibit maturity in conduct on the wards, and demonstrate the
disposition of a mature and qualified physician.

Curriculum
The third year of the four-year medical program consists of
42 weeks of core rotations. These are structured experiences
required of all students, regardless of where they train. The
core rotations consist of 12 weeks of Medicine; 12 weeks
of Surgery; and 6 weeks each of Psychiatry, Pediatrics, and
Obstetrics/Gynecology. These core rotations traditionally form
the educational foundation for all medical students regardless
of future specialty.
In addition to the core rotations, all students must
complete four weeks of Primary Care, a four-week Medicine
subinternship, a four-week Medicine elective, a four-week
Pediatric sub-internship or elective, and 22 weeks of additional
electives in order to graduate.
Subsets of patients seen in this setting include the clinically
healthy, the socioeconomically disadvantaged, the elderly,
high medical utilizers, immigrants, and those with chronic or
terminal diseases.
A sub-internship in Medicine continues the educational goals
and objectives of the core rotation, but at a higher level of
responsibility. Sub-interns share patient responsibility and
participate in regularly scheduled night and weekend calls.
Sub-Interns follow a limited number of patients very closely
throughout the diagnostic workup and management. In this
way, sub-internships prepare students for internships and first
postgraduate years. A four-week Medicine sub-internship, fourweek
Medicine elective, and four-week Pediatric sub-internship
or elective are mandatory for all students.
Electives are offered at the University’s Clinical Centers
and affiliated hospitals. Additional electives are available at
hospitals outside the University systems, but these are subject
to the review and approval of the Dean of the School of
Medicine. Students who seek licensure in the United States
should carefully note that the licensing boards of some states
require that students take electives only at affiliated hospitals.
This will also be true in other countries. The University
requires that each clerkship (whether core or elective) be
completed at a hospital with an ACGME-approved residency in
that specialty. Since licensing regulations may vary from state
to state, and from one year to the next, this matter must be
considered as students devise elective programs. Each elective
is usually at least four weeks long.
General Strategy: The principal objective of the elective
program is to provide the best preparation for students’
career choices, while coordinating balanced yet broad clinical
experiences. In recognition of the individual plans and needs
of all students, choices of both subject matter and course
location are made by students with advice from supervising
clinical teachers and with the approval of the Dean.
Details about each of the core rotations are found under the
departmental descriptions.
Primary Care Rotation: (four weeks) This mandatory rotation
can be based in Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine, or
outpatient clinics in any specialty involving primary care.
This rotation can be done out of network at any hospital with
an approved ACGME residency in the appropriate specialty.
Students who plan to practice in California or Texas must take
four weeks of Family Medicine in a hospital having an ACGMEapproved
residency training program in this discipline.
The Primary Care rotation focuses on learning aspects of acute
medical problems commonly seen in outpatient settings, such
as respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, psychiatric, and
genitor-urinary illnesses, as well as hypertension, diabetes, pain
management, and common mild musculoskeletal injuries.

The Clinical Years consist of five terms for a total of 80 weeks.
SAMPLE: This listing does not indicate the sequence of courses. The core rotation schedules are determined by the hospital at the time
students are admitted into the clinical program. In general, students complete their core rotations before doing additional requirements and
electives. Primary Care can be taken at any point in the clinical curriculum. Electives listed above are examples of the many options available.
Elective choices and schedules are arranged individually by students, in consultation with the hospital administration.
Hospitals have the option of requiring students to attend an orientation. This orientation can last up to a week and is a non-credit experience.
Clinical rotations in the United Kingdom may begin in January.

Doctor of Medicine Degree Programs
22

MD/Dual Degree Programs
St. George’s University School of Medicine offers several
paths for medical students to increase their knowledge in
one area of medical study while pursuing the Doctor of
Medicine degree.
Bachelor of Science/MD
Students who enter the University during the first or
second year of the premedical program may earn a
bachelor’s degree upon acceptance into and completion
of their first year of the four-year Doctor of Medicine
degree program.
MD/Master of Public Health
The Department of Public Health and Preventive
Medicine administers the graduate public health degree
in the Doctor of Medicine/Master of Public Health
(MD/MPH) program. The department also delivers
the Community Preventive Medicine component of the
Doctor of Medicine degree program. Students in the
MD/MPH program choose one of three specialization
tracks offered to all MPH students. In addition to the
requirements of the four-year medical program, MD/
MPH students must meet all the requirements of the
MPH program: 15 credits of core courses, 6 credits of
program-required courses, 12 credits of track-required
courses, 6 credits of elective courses, 3 credits from
the Capstone Seminar, and 6 credits from a field-based
practicum.
The dual MD/MPH degree program requires 48 credits
of public health coursework, in addition to completing
the medical program. This would require an additional
six months of study in Grenada, as well as two summer
sessions. This also includes a practicum that may be
arranged in various international settings. As of Spring
2011, the program will require 42 credits of public
health coursework. Students accepted into the 48-credit
program for Fall 2010 have the option of completing the
42-credit program.
Students seeking admission to the MD/MPH program
will first be reviewed for acceptance into the four-year
medical program. Upon acceptance, the Office of
Admission will forward the application to the Department
of Public Health and Preventive Medicine for review and
consideration.
Students who enter during the August term complete
Term 1 and Term 2 of the medical program, beginning
the MPH program in the Summer and continuing
in the Fall. These students then resume their Term 3
coursework of the medical program in the following year
before completing the MPH coursework in the following
Spring term. These students then complete their
practicum at the end of the Spring term and resume their
medical training in the Fall.
Students who enter during the January term complete
Term 1 of the medical program, beginning the MPH
program in the Summer term of that year. In the Fall,
these students complete Term 2 of the medical program,
as well as Term 3 in the following January to February
period. The students then complete consecutive Spring
and Summer terms to complete the MPH coursework
before returning to Term 4 of the medical program in the
Fall. Appropriate schedules will be distributed to students
upon acceptance into the dual degree program.
The US accreditation authority for public health
programs, The Council on Education for Public Health
(CEPH) has granted accreditation for five years to St.
George’s University’s Master of Public Health degree
program. This makes St. George’s University only the
fourth institution outside of the United States to be
accredited by CEPH and the only university in the
Caribbean to hold this coveted distinction.
MD/Master of Science
The dual degree program offers opportunities for
research in the areas of Anatomy, Bioethics, Ecology,
Immunology, Microbiology, and Tropical Medicine.
The curriculum for the dual Doctor of Medicine/Master
of Science (MD/MSc) degrees usually reflects areas
of investigative research that may enhance preventive
medicine and health care delivery in Grenada, other
Caribbean states, and internationally. Medical students
who wish to obtain this dual degree decelerate the
preclinical medical program to facilitate the MSc
program.
The research carried out in this dual degree program is
partially supported by the Windward Islands Research
and Education Foundation (WINDREF), a nonprofit
organization at St. George’s University. Depending on the
specific area of research, studies may be conducted within
WINDREF, in departmental laboratories, or in approved
laboratories at other universities or institutes. The MSc
degree will be awarded on the successful completion of
10 required credits from the preclinical medical program
and all prescribed graduate-level courses as outlined in
the curriculum.
Admission criteria for entry into a master’s degree
program is an undergraduate degree from an approved
university; for admission to the PhD program, a master’s
degree from an approved university is required. Course
requirements for the specific degree programs are
outlined on the succeeding pages and more detailed
information may be obtained from the Office of the
Dean of the Graduate Studies Program. Application
forms in addition to course and program details can be
obtained from the University website at www.sgu.edu.
23

MD/Master of Business Administration
The Master of Business Administration (MBA) offered through
St. George’s University’s Centre for Advancing International
Management offers a US-style master’s degree, which is projectcentered
and tool-driven, designed for experienced managers
and professionals from diverse backgrounds and cultures,
and focuses on managing the dimensions and complexities of
community wellness, including economic enterprise. Combing
a creative mix of blended learning methods, the program is
taught primarily online to international project teams, with
short residencies on the True Blue campus supplementing the
multi-mode delivery.
Over a 12-month period, participants complete a 34-credit
program that equips them to manage every aspect of small- to
medium-sized organizations, in the private or social sectors,
especially in international settings. A distinctive holistic
approach underlies learning that reaches across disciplines and
sectors, seeking the total health of communities, and is a unique
feature of our Centre for Advancing International Management.
The dual MD/MBA in Multi-Sector Health Management
requires 34 credits of MBA courses and two separate one-week
residencies in Grenada. This would require an additional
semester of study in Grenada to complete the basic medical
sciences curriculum.
Students seeking admission to the MD/MBA program will first
be reviewed for acceptance into the four-year Doctor of Medicine
degree program. Upon acceptance, the Office of Admission
will forward the application to the Centre for Advancing
International Management for review and consideration.
Acceptance into the MBA program is based on the following
requirements: A bachelor’s degree, BA or BS from a regionally
accredited university or college; a competitive GPA, unless
exempted by the Committee on Admission.

Independent Graduate Degree Programs
Master of Public Health
The vision of the Department of Public Health and
Preventive Medicine at St. George’s University is to
be a dynamic regional and international center of
excellence in public health education, service, research,
and scholarly activities; attracting students, faculty, and
partners of diverse background who contribute to the
strengthening and empowerment of communities, in an
ever changing environment. The vision is supported by
the mission to cultivate, produce, and disseminate public
health knowledge, to train practitioners, and collaborate
with partners and communities to promote public health
regionally and internationally through an integration
of education, service, research, and scholarly activities.
This mission is accomplished through community
empowerment, collaboration, and team concept, offering
continued professional educational opportunities,
translating research and knowledge through high quality
research-to-practice applications, producing graduates
of high quality, and aligning the program with the
community needs. The department offers its graduate
program within the School of Medicine, administers
the Community Preventive Medicine component of the
Doctor of Medicine program and collaborates with the
School of Veterinary Medicine.
The Master of Public Health (MPH) program offers the
freestanding MPH, as well as the MD/MPH dual degree,
giving students the option to specialize in one of three
tracks: Epidemiology, Environmental and Occupational
Health, or Health Behavior and Policy. A fourth track
offered in collaboration with the School of Veterinary
Medicine, Veterinary Public Health, is restricted to DVM/
MPH dual degree students. The MPH program requires
48 credits of graduate public health coursework. Of the
total credits, 15 credits are completed through graduatelevel
core courses, 6 credits of program-required courses,
12 credits of track-required courses, 6 credits of elective
courses, 3 credits from the Capstone Seminar, and 6
credits from a field-based practicum.
The department is also the academic home for many
public health practitioners who serve as our core,
adjunct, and visiting faculty. Many of these members
have years of public health experience and continue
to engage in teaching, research, service and workforce
development activities. The program allows its faculty
and students to pursue interdisciplinary opportunities in
scholarly activities, service and work force development.
The faculty is encouraged to participate in research
collaboration with other public health institutions and
have existing links with the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), National Institute of Health
(NIH), the Caribbean Health Research Council (CHRC),
University of the West Indies and many others. Service
links exist with the Grenada’s Ministries of Health
and Agriculture, as well as regional and international
agencies, such as the Pan American Health Organization
(PAHO), Caribbean Community and Common Market
(CARICOM), the United Nation Children’s Fund
(UNICEF), and the United Nation’s Development
Fund for Women (UNIFEM). All of these dimensions
contribute to the academic experiences that our students
receive within the program.
The US accreditation authority for public health
programs, The Council on Education for Public Health
(CEPH) has granted accreditation for five years to St.
George’s University’s Master of Public Health degree
program. This makes St. George’s University only the
fourth institution outside of the United States to be

Microbiology
The Microbiology programs provide a rich, laboratorybased
curriculum, supporting students in the
development of independent research projects, and
encouraging them in their efforts to develop and
contribute new ideas in selected areas of microbiology.
Areas of concentration include, but are not limited to,
Clinical Microbiology, Marine Microbiology, Parasitology,
Mycology, Immunology, and Virology. A student’s
individualized program of study and pursuant research is
determined by a student’s interests, as well as academic
background, and is directed by a chosen advisor and
selected supervisory committee, in consultation with
the student. The Microbiology Department also offers
students an opportunity to concentrate on medically
related issues in microbiology. With similar academic
requirements, this degree
program includes courses delivered in the Basic Medical
Sciences, preparing students for careers in medical
research and clinical laboratory work. As part of the core
credit requirements, those interested in the medical field
track must take the following preclinical medical courses:
BCHM 550 Medical Biochemistry 6 cr.
BCHM 590 Medical Genetics 1 cr.
Anatomy
The MSc degree is a two-year program that focuses on
the traditional anatomical sciences available as a thesis or
non-thesis program.
29

Doctor of Philosophy
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree programs at St.
George’s University require a total of 60 credits or more.
All PhD programs require the production and defense of a
doctoral thesis. Transfer credits are accepted from approved
institutions and the candidate’s supervisory committee
determines the number of credits that may be incorporated,
following specified guidelines. Research and coursework
are directed by the candidate’s supervisory committee. All
completed theses, upon the recommendation of the chair
of the supervisory committee, are submitted to the Dean of
the Graduate Studies Program and forwarded to an external
examiner. A final oral presentation and defense of the thesis
must be successfully completed prior to being awarded the
degree.
Microbiology
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Microbiology offers
specific areas of concentration in Clinical Microbiology,
Marine Microbiology, Parasitology, Mycology, Immunology,
and Virology. Graduate courses will complement the specific
areas of concentration and are set by the candidate’s
supervisory committee.
Anatomy/Anatomical Sciences
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Anatomy/Anatomical
Sciences provides academic anatomists with training in clinical
and anatomical research.

General Rules and Regulations
Honor Code
St. George’s University School of Medicine is an
institution of medical education dedicated to a high
standard of ethics and academic achievement. It is
the duty of the University community to nurture safe,
competent physicians who exhibit professional maturity
and sound moral character. To this end, the University
has instituted an honor code to which all students must
adhere upon matriculation at the School.
As a member of the student body of St. George’s
University School of Medicine, I agree:
1. To adhere to the University’s policy of maintaining a
high standard of honor and academic integrity.
2. To refrain from violations of these ideals, for example,
by cheating, plagiarizing, lying, or stealing.
3. To accept the responsibility of reporting such
wrongdoing upon witness. It is understood that any
breach of this honor code necessitates disciplinary
action, subject to the discretion of University officials,
the procedures for which are outlined in the SGU
Student Manual.
Once signed, adherence to this code is required and
expected for the duration of students’ matriculation at
the University.
Promotion, Progress,
and Academic Retention
The Committee for Satisfactory Academic Progress and
Professional Standards (CAPPS) reviews the records of all
students twice a year. Students are evaluated in terms of
their academic performance, professional attitude, and
moral character. The faculty reserves the right to refuse
promotion to students who are believed to be unsuited
for continued study at the University. Information
detailing promotion, progress, and academic retention
guidelines are delineated in the SGU Student Manual.
Health Form
The University Health Form is comprised of three parts:
Part I - Health History; Part II - Physical Examination;
and Part III – TB Screening and Immunization Record.
All three parts, filled out completely and accurately, must
be submitted prior to registration at the University. After
a leave of absence (LOA) for medical reasons, a new
medical clearance might be required for re-matriculation.
Due to public health regulations, students’ health
histories, physical examination reports, and
immunization records must be current and accurate in
order for students to do clinical rotations at hospitals in
the United States and the United Kingdom. Students
will not be admitted to the clinical program unless their
health forms are complete, current, and cleared.
This information is also required for postgraduate
training and when joining a hospital’s medical staff as
a fully licensed physician. Therefore, a copy of all this
material, including updates, should be kept by students at
all times and arrangements for current physicals should
be made at appropriate intervals to eliminate delays in
academic and career progress.
Outside Employment
Students are not permitted to obtain outside employment
during the official school term without the written
consent of the appropriate dean. Students who are
not citizens of Grenada may not obtain employment
in Grenada unless specifically permitted to do so by
authorization of the applicable Grenadian authorities.

Introduction to Psychology
PSYC 201
Introduction to Psychology covers systematic and experimental
approaches to understanding human behavior and cognition.
The course is an in-depth introduction to the science and
profession of psychology. It will present what is known about
human nature, how it reveals general principles of the
functioning of the brain, and the behavior of individuals and
groups.
Abnormal Psychology
PSYC 302
The course examines the etiology, epidemiology, description/
classification, and treatment of disordered behavior. Major
mental disorders are systematically examined from several
different theoretical viewpoints, including psychodynamic,
learning, cognitive, physiological, and humanistic/existential.
A survey of psychological disorders is provided and students
are introduced to the DSM-IV classification system. Treatment
approaches based upon the major theoretical perspectives are
covered and empirically based treatment outcome studies are
reviewed.
Social Science and Medicine
SSCI 412
This course examines several aspects of medicine. First, it
examines how the health care system is a social institution with
norms and belief systems that may differ in other cultures.
Second, the doctor-patient relationship is examined and
the concepts of doctor communication, patient adherence,
and compliance, in addition to types of health care delivery,
are highlighted. Third, behavior and how it affects patient
health is examined. Specifically, the course discusses stress,
personality, drug use, alcohol, smoking, diet, and pain
management as important factors contributing to a person’s
health. As fewer people die from infectious diseases and
more people die from diseases (such as cancer) that may be
prevented through a healthy lifestyle, understanding patients’
lifestyles outside of the hospital is imperative. Overall, the
course discusses health and illness within the biopsychosocial
model that is replacing the biomedical model in medicine.
Doctor of Medicine Program
The medical program curriculum is divided into two segments,
the Basic Medical Sciences and the Clinical Years.
Basic Sciences Courses
The following descriptions are overviews of the Basic Medical
Sciences courses. The subject matter and course objectives will
continually change to reflect advances and new directions
within the discipline, as well as growth and new dimensions
within the faculty and academic community of the School.
Anatomical Sciences
Marios Loukas, MD, PhD, Chair
Histology and Cell Biology
ANAT 531
This course presents the structure and function of the human
body as revealed by light and electron microscopy, as well as
cell biological techniques, such as immunocytochemistry. The
course commences with a discussion of the cell and its internal
structures. Students are introduced to the concepts of how
cells interact with each other and their external environment.
Cell signaling, cell secretion, the cell cycle, and the
extracellular matrix are some of the topics presented in the
analysis of cell structure and function.
Students’ mastery of cell structure and function leads to the
organization of cells into the four basic tissues of the body.
Each of these is presented with emphasis on the role of cells in
tissue organization and function. The cellular nature of the
tissues and the interactions of cells with the extracellular
matrix are stressed so that students have a firm understanding
of the concept of a histological tissue. An understanding of the
four basic tissues is paramount to students becoming complete
and modern physicians.
The basic tissues of the body are then arranged into the organs
and organ systems. Once again, the cellular aspects of organ
structure and function are emphasized because cells in the
various organs are the main contributors to the function of
those organs.
Doctor of Medicine Course Descriptions
The emphasis on the cell in histology and cell biology cannot
be overly stressed since all diseases occur at the cellular
level. Thus, students must understand the basic science of
the cell and its mechanisms before they can understand
how pathologies work. In addition, cell structure and
function as presented in this course serves as preparation
for the elaboration of these concepts in the physiology and
pharmacology courses, and will prepare students to be lifelong
learners of medicine. The students are taught learning skills
and gain knowledge about information that is an absolute
necessity for the modern physician.
Human Gross and Developmental Anatomy
ANAT 550
The course in human gross and developmental anatomy
consists of approximately 160 scheduled class hours devoted to
cultivating an appreciation of a three-dimensional visual image
of the human body and its development.
36

Formal lectures present integrated general and applied
anatomy, imaging, clinical anatomy, developmental anatomy,
and clinical embryology. Specific objectives are provided to
facilitate learning, in addition to reading the required text
and anatomical atlas. All lectures and laboratory sessions are
available through the University website on ANGEL, which also
provides online testing. Both midterm and final examinations
are in a USMLE board format.
• Laboratory Exercises
Study of the cadaver is achieved through prosected cadaveric
specimens and follows a traditional sequence of the back,
upper extremity, thorax, and abdomen prior to midterm. The
sequence continues with the pelvis, perineum, lower extremity,
head, and neck for the final examination.
Instructions for studying the prosections are given in a
prosection manual. Small groups of no more than four
students are rotated through several prosected specimens with
the guidance of faculty.
• Small Group Discussion
The Human Gross and Developmental Anatomy course is
further highlighted by several two-hour small group discussion
sessions. With the guidance of clinical tutors, small groups of
no more than eight students per group have the opportunity
to learn the initial steps of physical examination, such as
inspection, percussion, auscultation, and so forth, through
a problem-based environment. In addition, relevant core
clinical cases are presented to the students in order to facilitate
basic interpretation of clinical anatomy, congenital defects,
contemporary imaging, professional competencies, teambased
interpersonal skills, and research articles. The course is
specifically designed to enhance clinical integration of Basic
Sciences material.
Behavioral Sciences
David L. Brown, MD, PhD, Co-Chair
John P. Pettus, PhD, Co-Chair
MODULE: Behavioral Sciences and Medicine
BEHS 640
The course introduces students to the fundamental principles
of human behavior and development, with particular
emphasis upon the role of behavior within the context of
illness and the medical encounter. Theories contributing
to the understanding of normal human development and
psychopathology are examined.
An overview of several major psychological theories of human
behavior is provided, including psychodynamic, behavioral,
cognitive, and biological models. Exposition of these systems
leads to discussion of a number of topics, including systems of
psychotherapy, behavior modification, biological/genetic bases
of behavior, psychological assessment, complementary/
alternative treatment approaches, and psychopharmacological
intervention. An evidence-based approach is adopted in
assessing treatment effectiveness, and data supporting the
importance of a biopsychosocial approach to patient care is
presented.
There is an emphasis upon behavioral medicine/health
psychology and the role of cognitive/behavioral approaches in
the modification of risky health behavior. Special attention is
given to the crucial role of cultural factors within the doctorpatient
encounter and health care setting, as well as to the
importance of cultural competence in the provision of medical
care. The role of the family is noted within this context, and
life-disrupting disorders, such as substance abuse, domestic
violence, and child abuse are discussed with reference to the
physician’s role and responsibility, in terms of detection and
intervention.
An additional theme of the course relates to the importance
of preventive medicine. To develop this concept, students
participate in lectures and group exercises in biostatistics,
epidemiology, and health systems. Within the small group
setting, students apply the tools of biostatistics and
epidemiology to selected public health problems, with an
emphasis on the goal of reading the medical literature
critically. How behavior, environment, and politics
influence health in different societies is also considered-
---an international comparison of the health systems of
several countries is provided and factors underlying existing
disparities in health care are explored. Current issues of health
care financing and delivery are discussed, along with the
important changes in insurance systems, cost containment,
and different types of medical practice.
Finally, the fundamental concepts of law that relate to the
medical profession are covered in this course. The concerns of
society in the legislative, judicial, and administrative regulation
of medical practice are emphasized. An overview is provided
of the current and probable future expansion of society’s role
in the regulation of medical practice of medicine. The basic
principles of malpractice are discussed, in addition to topics,
such as informed consent, medical ethics, and confidentiality.
The course surveys the history of medical ethics and compares
the major perspectives on such issues as the conflicts between
different types of benefits to patients, the duties of a physician,
patient autonomy, termination of pregnancy, end-of-life
decisions, social ethics, and rationing of services. This module
within the course comprises the third component of the
“Medicine in Society” course series.
Biochemistry and Genetics
Sharmila Upadhya, MBBS, MD, DNB, Co-Chair
John Davidson, PhD, Co-Chair
Medical Biochemistry
BCHM 550
The Medical Biochemistry course is planned to provide
students with a working knowledge, which they can use
as practicing physicians to provide the biochemical basis
for understanding the subsequent courses in the medical
curriculum and to enable students to pass the USMLE and
BSCE examinations. The first half of the course provides a
background for understanding acid-base relations, structure,
and function of macromolecules, the role of enzymes, and
introduction to metabolism and genetics. The mechanisms
of biochemical reactions involved in energy production,
biosynthesis, and degradation, with attention being given to
Doctor of Medicine Course Descriptions
37

Doctor of Medicine Course Descriptions
their roles in disease, are also discussed. In this half of the
term, metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids and their
correlation is discussed. There is emphasis on the key
enzymes and regulatory steps in metabolic pathways, which
are important in understanding the regulation of metabolic
pathways in different physiological and pathological situations.
Hormonal regulation of energy metabolism in the fed and
fasting state is discussed. In the second half of the term,
nitrogen metabolism is discussed. This half of the term is
dominated by integrative and clinical subjects. We present and
explore the biochemical roles of the major organs of the
body together with an overview of the metabolic interplay
between organs. Principles of energy balance, as well as the
role of vitamins and minerals in maintaining good health are
introduced. Many topics of clinical significance are discussed
like coagulation, plasma proteins, jaundice, porphyries,
diabetes, obesity, membrane diseases, under-nutrition, and
clinical acid-base disorders.
In the second half of the term, students study a block of
molecular biology lectures, which include structure, function,
biosynthesis of RNA and DNA, protein biosynthesis, gene
expression, introduction to genomics, and the use of
molecular genetics in medicine. This ensures that all students
have an understanding of the basic concepts and techniques
of molecular biology, to be able to fully participate in the
genetic-based medicine of the new millennium. Students will
also participate in small group discussions, which are based on
a paper clinical case. These sessions are facilitated by students
with background in biochemistry or who are high achievers
on the midterm exam. The groups are supervised by faculty
members.
The Biochemistry course is a well-balanced course which
teaches the science of biochemistry in a clinical and
physiological context and addresses the needs of medical
students in the 21st century.
Medical Genetics
BCHM 590
This course reviews basic genetics and its application to
the study of inherited disorders. It begins with a study of
the chromosomes and the disorders that result from their
aberrations. Exploration of Mendelian and polygenic
inheritance follows, illustrated by representatives of the major
heritable disorders of man. There is coverage of molecular
and clinical genetics, including prenatal diagnosis and genetic
screening. The course concludes with introductions to growth
points in modern genetics, cancer genetics, gene therapy, and
the Human Genome Project.
Bioethics
Cheryl Macpherson, PhD, Chair
Our Bioethics Department is charged with centralizing and
strengthening training in ethical and professional thought
and action. This department offers programs and courses
to stimulate critical thinking and ethical discourse across
disciplines, facilitate academic exchange, and contribute to
professional development of students, faculty, visiting scholars,
and Caribbean health professionals.
The department contributes to the White Coat Ceremony,
organizes lecture series, conducts Institutional Review Board
training, and coordinates the development of professionalism
on campus through the SGU Professionalism Panel and its
associated professionalism committees.
Bioethics and the Professional: Medicine in Society I
BIOE 501
This course aims to strengthen students’ ability to recognize
and critically analyze ethical concerns in medical situations. It
provides opportunities to develop professional competencies
and skills. Students will begin to access credible information
(medical informatics), formulate and express reasoned
opinions, manage uncertainty, and communicate collegially.
Bioethics is a discipline grounded in the reasoning and
objectivity necessary to beneficial health outcomes and patient
satisfaction. It provides structure and tools with which to
address the numerous moral conflicts in medicine. Bioethical
concepts and terminology introduced in the course center on
professionalism, principles, and theories, which are applied
to patient scenarios and current medical controversies.
Interactive participation occurs through group discussions,
online activities, and during lectures. The course encourages
students to monitor their own professional development. It is
anticipated that passing this course will motivate and enable
students to reflect on their own professional competencies and
duties as these evolve during different stages of their medical
education.
Clinical Skills
Winston Mitchell, MBBS, Chair
Communication Skills and Physical Diagnosis
CLSK 653
This course instructs students in communication skills that
they will need as medical students and physicians in order
to relate to senior physicians, colleagues, patients and their
families, and other health care professionals. The course
prepares students for their role in addressing the common
problems found in delivering health care, for example,
providing health care instruction and delivering “bad news.”
Students will develop both oral and written communication
skills and learn the components of the standard history and
the art of presenting cases. The physical diagnosis portion
builds on the clinical skills learned in the first year of the
four-year MD program. The course uses both lectures and
laboratory sessions to teach physical examination skills. The
laboratory groups consist of small groups of students. The
techniques of physical examination are taught by videotape
demonstration, live demonstration, and supervised practice on
fellow students.
Introduction to Clinical Medicine
CLSK 654/CLSK 655
This course teaches students in small groups at the hospital
or an outpatient setting, as well as on campus using volunteer
patients. The overall objective of the Introduction to Clinical
Medicine course is to ensure that students understand the
process of taking histories, conducting physical examinations
on patients, and organizing their findings into a written or oral
38

presentation. Students should develop sufficient interpersonal
and clinical skills in this course in order to integrate rapidly
into the clinical hospital setting when they start their clinical
terms. This course requires students to develop clinical
thought processes leading to the art and science of problem
solving in clinical medicine.
Microbiology
David Lennon, PhD
Medical Microbiology
MICR 570
The microbiology and pathology courses are presented
simultaneously and are closely integrated with each other.
Microbiology appears as a balanced combination of formal
classroom instruction, practical laboratory experience,
and case-based exercises. The didactic portion is divided
into two consecutive sections. The first of these covers the
basic principles of microbiology, including classification
and taxonomy, microbial physiology and genetics, genetic
engineering, control of microorganisms through the use
of physical and chemical agents, antibiotics, host-parasite
relationships, and epidemiological concepts. Bacterial, fungal,
and viral infectious organisms are all represented in this series.
In the second section, the pathogens are discussed according to
the human organ system, where they most often cause clinical
disease. Clinical vignettes are used to illustrate the epidemiology,
pathogenesis, virulence properties, symptoms, laboratory
diagnosis, and therapy of the various agents. The presentation
is coordinated with the concurrent pathology course so that
the organ systems are dealt with in a fully integrated fashion.
After each organ system, representative cases are presented by a
practicing clinician to anchor a comprehensive understanding
of the pathogenesis and disease.
• Laboratory
During the laboratory sessions, students gain problem-solving
experience with pathogenic microorganisms. The laboratory
work includes the practical application of staining techniques,
antisepsis and disinfection, and isolation and identification
of infectious agents from clinical specimens along with the
determination of appropriate chemotherapeutic agents.
Additionally, students are given a case history along with a
relevant clinical specimen, and from these they isolate and
identify the microorganism, perform antibiotic sensitivity tests,
and report their results. Case-based instruction founded on
medical vignettes of infectious disease is considered in small
group discussions several times each term. Near the end of
the laboratory portion of the course, clinical conferences are
presented by visiting infectious disease specialists. Computerassisted
case presentations are used throughout the laboratory
portion of the course.
Students who engage in approved research programs under
the supervision of the staff can gain an elective in research
microbiology, and one or two academic credits per term.
Registration requirements for this course are determined
by the instructor. At the present time, research is being
conducted in the area of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms,
microorganisms in the local environment, and epidemiological
studies in bacteriology, virology, and parasitology. The average
amount of work required per one credit hour is based on
attitude, quality of work, reliability, technique, adherence to
laboratory protocol, effort, and results.
Medical Immunology
MICR 580
This course is structured in two distinct sections. The first
section is designed to provide students with an understanding
of major elements and principles of basic immunology, with
an emphasis on the interaction between innate and adaptive
immunity. The second section is Translational Medicine,
designed to provide students with an elementary background
in various clinical disorders that have an immunological
basis. Students are introduced also to novel immunological
therapies in order to understand their underlying basic science
concepts.
Medical Parasitology
MICR 660
Emphasis is balanced between parasitic infections that
frequent the tropics and those that are being increasingly
recognized in the temperate zones. Approximately half
of the course deals with medical protozoology, including
the amoebas, flagellates, ciliates, and sporozoa that are
capable of infecting living human tissue. The second part of
the course covers medical helminthology (the Nematoda,
Platyhelminthes, and Acanthocephala). Arthropods of medical
significance are also discussed. Presentations of the various
organisms emphasize the epidemiology, symptomatology,
pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis, and treatment of each.
• Laboratory
Lectures are supplemented by laboratory sessions that
include stool examinations for ova and cysts of parasites. Slide
presentations are used extensively in the consideration of all
the parasites.
Pathology
Shivayogi Bhusnurmath, MD, FRCPath, Chair
Pathology
PATH 640
The Pathology course is taught in two segments—General
Pathology and Systemic Pathology. The main emphasis of the
course is on active learning by students based on clinically
oriented lectures and daily clinical problem solving by students
in groups of ten during lab hours. This is accomplished by
targeted discussions using pathology images (about 400)
representing patients and clinical vignettes with built-in
questions. The images are posted on the University website
and made available to students. Periodically, gross specimens
and glass slides from current hospital material are also
discussed. The discussions are closely monitored by the faculty
and students are evaluated on a daily basis.
The General Pathology segment deals with how tissues respond
to injury, cell death, inflammation, ischemia, thrombosis,

“neoplasia.” This is followed by a special course on Molecular
Pathology techniques as applied to clinical practice.
The Systemic Pathology segment involves similar principles
but applied in detail to individual organ systems like
cardiovascular, respiratory, and so forth. It will also include
interpretation of laboratory data for some of the major disease
processes. A short course on Forensic Pathology is taught in
the Systemic Pathology module. Several clinicopathological
conferences, including difficult case seminars, are also
discussed by students.
Students are mandated to draw concept maps each week
and submit them for evaluation. A total of 480 test items
are administered through three quizzes and three exams,
including 105 based on images. All the questions are clinical
problem-solving MCQs.
• Laboratory
The lab sessions are conducted as group activities in student
groups of 10 to 12 monitored by a clinical tutor. The students
discuss gross and microscopic pathology images, electron
micrographs, radiographic images, and clinical cases, which
correlate with the concurrent lecture manual. The process
involves active learning with guided discovery of etiology,
pathogenesis, structural changes, clinical symptoms and
signs, relevant investigations, and course of the disease for
the common and prototype diseases. The students are also
encouraged to learn how to distinguish between related
entities.
Medical Nutrition
PATH 693
Medical Nutrition focuses on the relevance of nutrition in
the prevention and treatment of disease. Presented in this
course are those components of human pathophysiology in
which diet on the basis of current knowledge is believed to
be important in either a causative or contributory way. The
application of dietary knowledge to prevention of disease and
the management of established disease are also discussed.
Also addressed are clinical topics such as infant, maternal, and
geriatric nutrition; problems of obesity and related subjects;
and the principles of the management of diseases such as
diabetes mellitus, renal failure, and atherosclerosis.
Pathophysiology
Shivayogi R. Bhusnurmath, MD, FRCPath, Interim Chair
Pathophysiology
PATH 674
Pathophysiology are amalgamated into 18 uninterrupted
weeks of study. The objectives of the courses are structured
to explore why and how diseases occur, as well as to
develop students’ deductive reasoning and synthesis of
information skills. Understanding the process by which one
approaches disease(s), arrives at a diagnosis based upon
clinical information, and then applies this information to
the institution of appropriate therapeutic interventions is
the major goal. By presenting the course concomitantly
with Pharmacology and Introduction to Clinical Medicine
in an integrated fashion, the goals and objectives of the
course are achieved. This integration is further achieved by
the presentation of the “case of the week.” The “cases” are
prepared by the department faculty with the assistance of
visiting professors. Students meet in small groups to discuss
specific questions relative to each case. The lectures include
discussions on several clinical vignettes, which provide a basis
for exploring the basic science concepts to explain symptoms,
signs, investigations, and complications. In addition, about 50
USMLE Step 1-type questions are provided online as test and
study material on the topics of the week.
The course is divided into three six-week sections with an
examination at the end of each section. An organ systems
(cardiology, pulmonology, gastroenterology, nephrology,
hematology, endocrinology, dermatology, and neurology)
and interdisciplinary (clinical immunology, rheumatology,
infectious diseases, psychiatry, pediatrics, obstetrics and
gynecology, sexuality, clinical nutrition, and oncology)
approach is used. Lectures are delivered by visiting
professors or full-time faculty who are outstanding clinicians/
academicians in their fields. These lectures present a cohesive
pathophysiology course, which is preparatory to
students’ entry into the Clinical Years.
Basic Science Foundation for Clinical Reasoning
PATH 675
Student should be able to recapitulate the important basic
science concepts using clinical vignettes. It is a two-credit
course with two small group sessions usually on Fridays. The
lecture hour sessions will be in the format of modified termbased
learning. Students will be seated in groups of 12 to 14.
Each group will be provided with a different clinical vignetterelated
to the topics taught in the pathophysiology course
that week. A number of basic science-related questions will
be linked to the vignettes. The student groups get 10 to 12
minutes to discuss and find answers to the questions. At the
end of that time, the plenary session will start. One by one,
each vignette and the related questions are projected. The
concerned group will respond with the answers. The rest of
the class can then join in with any other relevant comments/
disagreements. These sessions will be supplemented by online
tasks in the form of MCQs or a similar format that the students
will do under supervision. This course should enable the
students to actively learn the application of Basic Sciences in
the analysis and problem solving of clinical vignettes.
Pharmacology
Leonardo Dasso, PhD, Chair
Pharmacology
PHAR 681
The primary objective of the Pharmacology course is to
provide the student with a solid basis for understanding
the pharmacology of therapeutic agents, and thus with a
foundation for future clinical decision making with respect to
pharmacological therapies.
The course begins with a basic principles module exploring
the fundamental principles of pharmacokinetics and
pharmacodynamics. This is followed by systematic discussion
of the major drug used in specific clinical situations. Topics
40

covered include the pharmacology of the autonomic
and central nervous systems, cardiovascular, respiratory,
gastrointestinal, renal, endocrine, and autacoid pharmacology,
and chemotherapy. Particular emphasis is placed on the
mechanisms of action, therapeutic, and adverse effects and
clinical indications of drugs used in medical practice.
The lecture sequence has been coordinated with the
Pathophysiology course and the schedules have been
subdivided into different subject blocks to facilitate learning
across disciplines.
Each lecture has well-defined learning objectives intended
to help students organize their study and prepare for
examinations.
For advanced discussion of selected topics, the class is divided
into small groups, and short clinical cases are presented and
discussed by students under the guidance of a group facilitator.
Physiology and Neuroscience
Walter Kolbinger, PhD, Chair
Neuroscience
PHYS 510
This course is an interdisciplinary study of the function of the
nervous system entailing almost simultaneously its anatomy,
histology, physiology, biochemistry, and some pharmacology
and pathophysiology. Whenever feasible, the course presents
concomitantly, rather than sequentially, the basic structures,
mechanisms, and functions of the various interrelated neural
systems. Neurological case studies presented as disorders
of normal function are included as an integral component
wherever possible.
• Small Group Practical Sessions
Small group practical sessions of no more than six students
per group are targeted toward facilitating the awareness and
development of professional competencies, which include
clinical reasoning, components of clinical skills used in
neurological examinations, basic interpretation of modern
imaging techniques, and team-based interpersonal skills.
Hands-on small group sessions on neuroanatomy before
midterm help students to match the three-dimensional
structures of the central nervous system with sections produced
by modern imaging techniques, such as CT-scans and MRIs.
After the midterm, students are taking their first steps to
perform neurological examinations, while reviewing the
underlying mechanisms and discussing the expected outcomes
under physiological and pathological conditions.
Each of the small group sessions includes a clinical case
discussion related to the core material presented in these
sessions.
Physiology
PHYS 560
The aim of this course is to provide students with a clear
understanding of the most important concepts and principles
of medical physiology. The lectures provide the information
base while the laboratories and case studies provide the
student with an opportunity to assimilate and integrate the
material within a small group setting. The first half covers
cardiovascular, cellular, muscle physiology, and an introduction
to pharmacology. The second half covers gastrointestinal,
renal, pulmonary, and endocrine physiology. Appropriate
clinical perspectives are presented throughout the course.
Review sessions are scheduled on a regular basis.
• Laboratory
Two human laboratory exercises pertaining to cardiovascular,
respiratory physiology are included in the course. Computerassisted
applications are regularly used. For each of the
laboratories, students work in groups of five to six; groups are
assisted by a faculty member.
• Clinical Case Studies
Six clinical case studies pertaining to cardiovascular,
endocrine, respiratory, renal, and acid-base regulation are
included in the course. For this portion of the program,
classes are broken up into small discussion groups of five to six
students.
Public Health and Preventive Medicine
Omur Cinar Elci, MD, PhD, Chair
Topics in Community and Preventive Medicine:
Medicine in Society II
PUBH 501
This course focuses on disease prevention, health promotion,
and population health, as well as on the integration of each in
the practice of medicine. The course focuses on three areas:
the evidence base of practice, community aspects of practice,
and clinical preventive services and health promotion.
Themes running throughout the course will include the
scientific foundation upon which practice guidelines and
recommendations are made, the role and contribution of
both clinical and community prevention efforts, and the
applicability of these topics to the practicing physician. The
principles of community and preventive medicine will be
illustrated using examples from a wide range of health topics
such as child health, health of the elderly, health disparities,
infectious and chronic diseases, and health topics in the news.
The overarching goal of this course is to demonstrate that
community medicine and preventive medicine can be and
should be an integral part of the practice of medicine.
• Online Course Management System
Student learning is facilitated by an electronic course
management system, where course materials and supplemental
materials can be reviewed online, and students can take selfassessment
quizzes and participate in discussions for each of
the lecture modules.

Selectives
Selectives are offered to Basic Sciences students during the
first two years of the four-year medical program. The objective
is to provide a structured learning experience in diverse
clinical and scholarly areas. They give students the opportunity
to integrate Basic Sciences knowledge into clinical areas and
may provide a transition into clinical medicine. Selectives are
offered by various departments and coordinated through the
Office of the Dean of Basic Sciences. There is a cost associated
with some of the following electives.
American Sign Language (ASL)
Robert Hage, MD, PhD, DLO, MBA
This one-credit selective is offered once a semester and will
fall within the start/stop dates of the first term semester. Ten
sessions are scheduled per semester. Students are expected
to attend and actively participate twice a week in a one-hour
session during which a teacher from the School for the Deaf
will teach American Sign Language (ASL). Guest speakers
will cover topics such as speech training, causes of deafness,
prevention of deafness, and hearing aids. This will add to each
session an element of theory and practical information related
to deafness. Students are expected to practice their acquired
sign language skills with each other between sessions and
demonstrate some of their skills during each session. Video
cassettes are available for viewing in the library. Visits to the
School for the Deaf are recommended.
Anatomical Education—Dissection and Multimedia
Marios Loukas, MD, PhD
The key objective of this one-term, two credit-hour selective
is furthering the development and enhancement of online
and offline anatomical sciences education and dissection
of multimedia materials. The primary goal is to expand
the competency of students involved by allowing them to
sharpen both their computing and their anatomy dissection
skills. Participants may produce high-quality prosections
and educational materials for any anatomical sciences
course, including gross anatomy, histology, embryology,
and undergraduate anatomy, or a combination thereof,
and develop a multimedia presentation. The multimedia
presentation includes 3D reconstructions, flash animations,
cadaveric prosected animations, and so forth.
Applied Anatomy Using Ultrasound and Nerve Mapper
Donny Shanahan, PhD
Brian Curry, PhD
This selective improves the anatomical knowledge of students
in the second term of the four-year medical program by using
cadaveric material to revisit the basic anatomy, and then using
an ultrasound machine to view the internal structure on live
volunteers of vital areas such as the neck and femoral triangle,
and a nerve mapper to show the position of nerves and vessels
in the living body in areas such as the neck, cubital fossa, and
femoral triangle. The course uses new technology to show
students the position of vital structures and reinforces the
relevance of clinical anatomy.
Applied Cell Biology and Histology
Jacques Gilloteaux, PhD
Using basic knowledge acquired in Cell Biology and Histology
during the first term of the four-year medical program,
selective students during their second term explore in more
depth some of the topics related to medical applications in
applied cell biology, histology of the human body, as well
as applying advanced morphological and related ancillary
techniques. The Applied Cell Biology and Histology selective
will review six major areas of cell, tissue, and organ system
investigations, as they can be relevant to reinforce cell biology
and histology knowledge. Students are also introduced to
principles of clinical histopathology. Students are given
the opportunity to critically read publications in these
topics to discuss and review the reports or presentations of
morphological data acquired in view of understanding their
clinical implications.
Bioethics Today
Cheryl Macpherson, PhD
The selective is designed for students with an interest in
bioethics who want to further develop their knowledge and
professional competencies. It deals with newsworthy concerns
in medicine, public health, research, environment, and more.
Fifteen contact hours can be spread over several semesters in
Grenada. Five or more hours each term will be led by faculty,
visiting professors, and students. Students in the Keith B.
Taylor Global Scholars Program are encouraged to enroll
and options for written assignments, sonic foundry, and/or
teleconferencing will be developed as needed. Students are
required to lead one seminar or journal club discussion during
their last year in Grenada. Most sessions are held at noon.
Clinical Professionalism in Sweden
Cheryl Macpherson, PhD
This intensive selective is held at Uppsala University in
Sweden over two weeks. It provides an opportunity to develop
professional competencies while learning about medicine,
professionalism, and the Swedish health care system. Students
interact with patients, doctors, and other medical students
in clinical and classroom settings. Students participate in
a briefing and de-briefing on campus before and after the
Uppsala experience. Students must cover their own costs
and arrangements for travel, accommodation, meals, and
incidental expenses. Advice about accommodation will be
provided.
Cardiopulmonary Life Support (ACLS)
Theresa McCann, PhD
During this advanced selective, students will enhance their
skills in the treatment of adult victims of cardiac arrest or other
cardiopulmonary emergencies. Students will learn current
American Heart Association (AHA) algorithmic approaches
to managing patients from both a cognitive and skills-based
approach using didactic video presentations and small
groups. This course emphasizes the importance of basic life
support CPR to patient survival, the integration of effective
basic life support with advanced cardiovascular life support
interventions, and the importance of effective team interaction
and communication during resuscitation. Cardiopulmonary
Life Support (ACLS) is based on simulated clinical scenarios
42

that encourage active, hands-on participation through
learning stations where students will practice essential skills
individually, as part of a team, and as team leader. Realistic
simulations reinforce key concepts, such as proficiency
in basic life support care, recognizing and initiating early
management of periarrest conditions, managing cardiac
arrest, identifying and treating ischemic chest pain and acute
coronary syndromes, recognizing other life-threatening
clinical situations (such as stroke) and providing initial care,
ACLS algorithms, and effective resuscitation team dynamics.
Students who successfully pass both the skills-based and written
evaluation will be awarded AHA ACLS certification.
Clinical, Ethical, and Neuroscience Aspects of Pain
Katherine Yearwood, MBBS
Pain is an important symptom in medicine. However, until
recently, pain management education has been minimal.
The one-credit selective will introduce pain as a public health
problem. It will cover the definition of pain, the neuroanatomy
and neurophysiology of pain, and psychological, sociological,
and anthropological aspects of pain. The students will be
taught to do pain histories and to assess pain and pain relief.
There will be an introduction to treatment options and
discussion of ethical issues related to pain management.
Community Health
Chamarthy Subbarao, BSc, MBBS
In this four-week one-credit selective, students attend three
lectures about orientation of the course including health care
systems in Grenada, history taking and communication skills.
Students attend the clinics under guidance of a Medical
Officer. They participate in taking history from patients
and observe the examination of these patients followed by
discussions with the attending physician. They are required
to keep a log of their activities and submit one detailed case
history. A one-credit version with less time commitment is
offered during the school term.
Community Health in Obstetrics and Gynecology
Robert Hage, MD, PhD, DLO, MBA
Carol McIntosh, MD, FACOG, OBE
This selective involves integration and application of basic
science knowledge with clinical medicine in obstetrics and
gynecology. It is a one-credit course with eight lecture hours,
including self-study and 14 clinical hours. A logbook needs to
be kept. The topics to be covered will be mastered by self-study,
lectures, and classroom interaction and demonstrations. The
course includes one weekend at Carriacou Health Services
(CHS) where clinical hours will encompass time in the
operating room, examining room, and evaluation of patients
in outpatient and inpatient settings, including imaging
procedures.
Complementary and Alternative Medicine
Jacqueline Stanley, PhD
This is a one-credit pass/fail Complementary and Alternative
Medicine selective that provides a comprehensive survey in
various areas of complementary and alternative medicine. The
primary goals and underlying methodologies of each of the
complementary health care areas are addressed. In addition,
the strengths/weaknesses and the risk/cost of each area from
patients’ and health care points of view are examined. An
important aspect of the Complementary and
Alternative Medicine selective is to have students understand
how these health care areas can interact with and complement
conventional medicine for optimal patient care. This selective
relies heavily on visiting professors, as well as on local
practitioners to deliver the material in a cohesive manner
based on their own experiences in the various areas. The
selective consists of three consecutive modules. Although
each module is open to everyone, students who wish to
receive credit on their transcript for this selective must
register and attend three full modules. Each module consists
of four lectures in the morning and two different afternoon
workshops. Furthermore, registered students must pass a short
quiz that will be given at the end of each day.
Current Topics in Medical Virology
Amy Baldwin, PhD
This selective is conducted in a journal club-type format,
where students discuss and present current research in the
area of medical virology. Course goals include reviewing
current scientific literature in the area of medical virology;
obtaining experience in critical evaluation of research; and
developing effective presentation skills. Student presentation
and discussion of research articles in medical virology will be
facilitated. This selective is one credit and will be graded on a
Pass/Fail basis.
Forensics for First Responders
Peter Giesler and Fred Jordan, MD
This selective acquaints future physicians, veterinarians, and
law enforcement personnel with the underlying principles
and concepts of modern forensic procedure. Emphasis is
on preservation of evidence, securing of crime scenes, and
proper maintenance of chain-of-custody of evidence. Through
lectures, demonstrations, and practical exercises, students who
successfully complete the course should be able to recognize
a crime scene, take appropriate steps to secure the area, and
preserve the integrity of the scene. Students learn about types
of physical evidence that may be found, how it is obtained, and
how it is analyzed. The course covers legal procedures in the
forensic sciences and specific groups that are involved in the
scientific analysis of legal evidence.
Gross Anatomy Special Dissection
Ewarld Marshall, MD
Mario Loukas, MD, PhD
This one-term two-credit course will give participants the
opportunity to undertake detailed, professional-quality
dissections of the human body. The ultimate objective is to
allow students to dissect specific regions and/or organs of the
human body in order to create “museum quality” specimens
for teaching purposes. In so doing, students will learn the
various techniques involved in the preparation of cadaveric
material for display and teaching. These include dry bone/
ligamentous preps, plastic embedding, and various plastination
procedures. Ultimately, the students’ overall knowledge of
anatomy will be enhanced.

Imaging and Anatomy
Robert Hage, MD, PhD, DLO, MBA
This one-credit selective will give participants the opportunity
to review the normal gross anatomical structure of the human
body as seen in various radiological films such as x-ray film,
MRIs, and CT scans. A major emphasis will be placed on the
clinical application of gross anatomy as it relates to the various
imaging methods. Ultimately, the students’ overall knowledge
of clinical anatomy will be enhanced.
Integrated Approach of Basic Science Related
to the Head and Neck Area
Robert Hage, MD, PhD, DLO, MBA
This one-credit selective is offered twice a year. Students will
have two sessions per week for five weeks at the beginning
of each semester. Visits to outside institutions are arranged
during the semester according to preference and availability.
Students will receive a total of five case studies by email, and
are expected to attempt to solve the problems before these
cases are presented on Monday afternoons. On Thursday
afternoons there will be sessions covering maxillofacial surgery,
radiology, examination technique, and demonstrations.
Visits to the General Hospital operating room, Radiology
Department, School for the Deaf, ENT Clinic, and special
homes are opportunities for students to gain valuable
experience. A CD or ZIP disk must be provided by students so
that material related to the selective (clinical pictures, video
clips, text) can be made available for home study.
International Health and Human Rights in Honduras
Angela Gomez, PhD
This is a one-credit selective that takes place in Honduras.
As there are fundamental differences between health care
provision in developed and underdeveloped countries, a
recognition and understanding of some of these issues should
help to build partnerships and support international health
efforts. Human rights are essential to the full attainment of
health. Most traditional medical curriculums do not address
this subject. This selective is designed to give students a fuller
comprehension of the global aspects surrounding health
and human rights. This selective is designed to promote a
better understanding of the broad determinants of individual
and population health, which can be applied to issues in
Honduras and regionally to other developed countries. The
core of the selective will be facilitated in Honduras by our
relationship with ASONOG (Asociación de Organismos No
Gubernamentales, the Association of Non-Governmental
Organizations), a nonprofit organization which works
throughout Honduras. ASONOG was founded in 1988 and
works on the coordinating of objectives strengthening primary
health services, developing local capacities in the prevention of
illnesses, and health promotion.
International Spanish Experience
Debbi Johnson, MA
The one-credit selective allows students to build and
expand on medical Spanish language skills by participating
in hands-on patient interaction in health care settings
located in international settings. The course director assists
with the identification and selection of a program that
best meets student needs from a large variety of approved
options available to them. All international programs have
some degree of Spanish language immersion and practice
opportunities throughout the selective. Settings will primarily
focus on students applying those skills to patient interviews and
basic medical care in clinics and hospital settings, participating
in community health initiatives.
International Trauma Life Support (ITLS)
Theresa McCann, PhD, MPH
This selective is offered at two levels: Advanced Level for
students who are health care professionals; Basic Level for
all other students. During this course, students will enhance
their knowledge and skills necessary to efficiently and
effectively manage patients who are affected by trauma.
Students will learn current International Trauma Life Support
(ITLS) algorithmic approaches to managing patients from
both a cognitive and skills-based approach using didactic
presentations, interactive skills stations, and case scenarios.
The ITLS selective covers the skills necessary for rapid
assessment, resuscitation, stabilization, and treatment or
transportation of trauma patients. Emphasized are the
evaluation steps, sequencing and techniques for resuscitation,
and packaging a patient. Realistic simulations reinforce
the key concepts, such as proficiency in basic life support
care, basic and advanced airway, chest decompression and
fluid resuscitation, spinal restriction and rapid extrication,
short back board, helmet management, log roll and long
back board, traction splints, and patient assessment and
management. Students who successfully pass both the
skills-based and written evaluation will be awarded ITLS
certification.
Medical Response to Disasters
Theresa McCann, PhD, MPH
During this selective, students will enhance their knowledge
and skills necessary to efficiently and effectively manage
situations with multiple injured or ill persons in varied
environments, such as natural and man-made disasters. This
program is designed to give medical professionals the skills
needed to identify and respond to major terrorist events
including chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear
(CBRN) incidents, as well as to major natural disasters such
as earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis. This program will
cover the medical implications of these events and introduce
current strategies for response. Realistic simulations reinforce
key concepts, such as the use of personal protective equipment
(Level D and Level C), recognition of and decontamination of
patients affected by CBRN materials, and triage and incident
command. Students who successfully pass both the skills-based
and written evaluation will be awarded Basic Responder CBRN
certification.
Medical Spanish for Health Care Professionals
Debbi Johnson, MA
This one-credit selective, which will meet once a week for
the entire term, is designed primarily to meet the needs of
medical students who anticipate contact with Spanish-speaking
patients in their future. In the United States, particularly, it
has become an absolute necessity for health care providers
to have at least a minimal understanding of the Spanish
language in order to reduce frustrations stemming from the
44

lack of ability to communicate with the nation’s fastest-growing
non-English speaking group. In addition to the significant
lack of control that health care providers feel at not being in
command of the language of their patients, the predicament
of non-Englishspeaking patients in need of medical care is of
crucial concern as well. The course, which will be offered at
the University’s main campus, will provide students with a basic
introduction to Spanish grammar and sentence structure, as
well as an overview of vocabulary for specific medical purposes.
Students will be expected to have had some exposure to
Spanishlanguage instruction, as well as be in good academic
standing in order for the more specialized medical instruction
to be beneficial. The course will cover such topics as basic
grammar skills, emergency medicine, a visit to the family
practitioner, basic anatomy, and dealing with sensitive cultural
issues.
Microbiology Selective
Ateef Qureshi, PhD, Joanna Rayner, PhD
The laboratory component of the Medical Microbiology
(MICR 570) course is the minimum required for future
physicians who intend to practice in developed countries
with automated, professional laboratory support. Students
planning to serve in developing nations will benefit from the
extra laboratory experience that will be provided by this twocredit
selective. Students who have an interest in infectious
disease and diagnostic microbiology will also benefit from
this selective. The objectives of the selective are to provide
extensive practical hands-on laboratory-based experience
and foster an appreciation of the safe handling of infectious
materials and/or microorganisms. Students must have a
minimum GPA of 3.0, and either General Microbiology
(BIOL 401) or Medical Microbiology (MICR 570) (pre- or corequisite),
as well as the permission of both the course director
and Dean of Students. A minimum of four to five students
should register for the course to be offered.
Pediatric Life Support (PALS)
Aris Scott, RN/BSN, MEd
During this advanced selective, students will enhance their
knowledge and skills necessary to efficiently and effectively
manage critically ill infants and children, resulting in
improved outcomes. Students will learn current American
Heart Association (AHA) algorithmic approaches to managing
patients from both a cognitive and skills-based approach
using didactic, video presentations, and small groups. This
course emphasizes the importance of basic life support
CPR to patient survival, the integration of effective basic life
support with pediatric advanced life support interventions,
and the importance of effective team interaction and
communication during resuscitation. PALS is based on
simulated clinical scenarios that encourage active, hands-on
participation through learning stations where students will
practice essential skills individually, as part of a team, and as
team leader. Realistic simulations reinforce the following key
concepts: proficiency in basic life support care; recognizing
and initiating early management of peri-arrest conditions,
recognition and treatment of infants and children at risk for
cardiopulmonary arrest, the systematic approach to pediatric
assessment, effective respiratory management, defibrillation
and synchronized cardioversion, intraosseous access and fluid
bolus administration, providing initial care, PALS algorithms,
and effective resuscitation team dynamics. Students who
successfully pass both the skills-based and written evaluation
will be awarded AHA PALS certification.
A Practical Experience in Tropical Medicine in Kenya
Calum Macpherson, PhD
This selective provides an introduction to tropical medicine,
and its impact and means of control within the available
health care and service settings in an East African cultural
context. The course is a two-week field-based experience for
students enrolled in the MD/MSc in tropical medicine, and
the remaining places are available for preclinical medical
students from St. George’s University, with preference given
to students in the Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program.
This experience offers direct observation of the epidemiology,
public health, clinical, control, and economic impact of
tropical diseases in a country where many such infections
are endemic. Through interaction with Kenyan medical
students who take the selective, AMREF staff, and visits to rural
areas, students gain an understanding and appreciation of
people and cultures in Kenya. Students will become familiar
with tropical medicine as practiced in the region through a
combination of lectures, site visits, seminars, case discussions,
and ward rounds.
The Prague Experience in Medicine
Martin Stransky, MD
This popular two-credit selective takes place in Prague in the
Czech Republic during the last three weeks of July. Students
are introduced to three teaching hospitals and a private
practice clinic with 25 physicians. The students gain exposure
to both adult and pediatric settings, and participate in team
discussions, teaching rounds, lectures, and direct patient
interaction. The thinking process that clinicians use when
examining patients is introduced and discussed. Students
assess the medical, cultural, and economic forces impacting
different medical systems. After this selective, students will have
developed an increased awareness of the globalization of
medicine, expanding their perspectives and knowledge bases
in patient care.
Pulmonary Function Testing
Mark Clunes, PhD
This one-credit selective will familiarize students with
the performance and evaluation of clinical flow/volume
pulmonary function tests and allow them to develop the
clinical skills required to perform successful tests. This
course will use didactic lectures to review lung physiology
and pathophysiology of different lung diseases. After
demonstration of a pulmonary function test, students will
practice administering the test, using American Thoracic
Society guidelines, to their peers. Students will examine
how test results are analyzed and how the results help in the
diagnosis of various lung disorders. Students will receive a
clinical case and will make a presentation based on that case
to assess understanding of implementation, analysis, and
diagnosis.

Regional Anatomical Dissection
Abhishek Yadav, MBBS
Mario Loukas, MD, PhD
This one-term, two-credit selective will give participants the
opportunity to undertake four detailed regional dissections of
the human body. These regions include head and neck; back
and thorax; extremities; and abdomen, pelvis, and perineum.
Each regional dissection will be limited to the appropriate area
but need not be a complete dissection of all the structures
within the topic area. The ultimate objectives are to give
students the opportunity to dissect regions of the human
body of particular interest to obtain a deeper understanding
of the anatomy of selected areas and for detailed anatomical
preparation to be created for future clinical aspirations.
Research Ethics
Cheryl Macpherson, PhD
This selective fosters professional development, strengthens
ethical sensitivity and reasoning ability, and enhances
knowledge and understanding of the complexities of existing
research ethics guidelines. This course focuses on the role
of human participants and the intersection of research with
clinical practice and public health. Students participate
in seminars and case discussions involving international
guidelines, therapeutic misconception, use of stored tissues,
and cultural and socioeconomic factors that bear on
international research collaborations. The ethics of authorship
and plagiarism are explored. The course expands upon the
SGUSOM required curriculum, enabling students to gain
substantial insight into research ethics. Students responded
favorably to the initial offering of the course in 2007.
Surgery
Chamarthy Subbarao, BSc, MBBS
In this four-week, one-credit selective, students attend three
lectures about history taking, communication skills, and the
history and running of the Grenada Health Services. Students
attend clinics and surgical operations under guidance of a
surgeon. They participate in taking histories from patients
and observe the examination of these patients followed by
discussions with the attending surgeon. They observe the
examinations and surgical operations in different specialties.
They are required to keep a log of their activities and submit
detailed case histories. A one-credit version with less time
commitment is offered during the school term.

The selective is an online communication workshop designed
to provide the techniques and concepts needed to improve
students’ communication skills as professionals in today’s
US marketplace. The acquired speaking skills will improve
performance in interviews, presentations, and interactions with
colleagues and peers. Emphasis will be placed on preparation,
body language, and image. Essential to competing in the
US job market today is the ability to convey information and
concepts distinctly without language barriers. To this end, this
workshop will enhance students’ English pronunciation while
reducing foreign accents. In addition, students will learn the
factors that influence their speech qualities, such as verbal
debris and volume. Throughout the one-credit course, each
student will have opportunities to hear his/her voice through
recordings and engage in self-critique in order to become
acutely aware of modifications. Once identified, students will
work through practice exercises and find solutions in online
discussions and resources to rectify errors.
Thailand Medical Experience
Michael Weitzman, Theresa McCann, PhD, MPH
The one-credit Thailand Medical Experience selective provides
an introduction to the practice of health care and service in
a Southeast Asian cultural context. The selective is a twoweek
experience for preclinical medical students during the
summer, comprising a mixture of modern and traditional
Thai medicine. It provides opportunities for students to
observe alternative ways of practicing medicine within the
Thai health care system and allows application of core
knowledge to diverse modalities of care. Such an experience
should increase cultural understanding of the similarities
and differences between Western and Eastern health care
delivery. Opportunities for interaction and discussion with
medical faculty, medical students, and/or residents will be an
important component of the selective. One week is spent at
Mahidol University Faculty of Medicine and Siriraj Hospital, a
modern facility in Bangkok. A second week is completed in a
rural area learning Thai traditional massage.
Clinical Years
There are 80 weeks of clinical training. Every student takes
42 weeks of core clinical rotations in the five major specialty
areas—12 weeks of internal medicine, 12 weeks of surgery, and
6 weeks each of obstetrics/gynecology, pediatrics, and
psychiatry. In addition to the core rotations, all students must
complete four weeks of primary care, a four-week medicine
subinternship, a four-week medicine elective, and a four-week
pediatric sub-internship or elective. To complete the clinical
requirements, every student takes 22 weeks of electives.
Internal Medicine
John Sensakovic, MD, PhD, Chair
The 12 weeks of the internal medicine rotation are designed
to expose students to a wide variety of medical problems.
Students are expected to develop a logical approach to the
diagnosis and treatment of patients’ complaints. Some of the
skills that must be acquired and refined are how to elicit and
assess patient information, how to perform a complete and
accurate physical examination, how to formulate a differential
diagnosis and problem list, how to construct a diagnostic
workup and a plan of management, and how to write up and
present cases.
Students thoroughly study at least two new patients per week,
present them on teaching rounds, follow them throughout
their hospital stay, and use patient problems as a basis for
reading.
The end of the rotation should accumulate large amounts
of experience-based knowledge as students are assigned
cases in various major areas of medicine such as cardiology,
gastroenterology, and endocrinology. Self-learning techniques,
as well as compulsory attendance at lectures, conferences, and
46

teaching rounds, in concert with a careful study of patients,
should foster a sound pathophysiological approach to medical
diseases and a concern for and awareness of patient needs.
Surgery
Gordon Lutchman, MD, Chair
The goal of the surgery rotation is to acquaint students with
those clinical problems that require surgery as part of the
therapeutic management. The emphasis of this rotation is not
primarily on surgical technique, but on the understanding
of the pathophysiology of surgical disease, as well as on the
management of pre-operative and post-operative therapy.
Besides the many short histories and physical examinations
done during this rotation, students are required to perform
detailed histories and physical examinations on at least two
patients admitted to the surgical service each week, and to
follow these patients through surgical and post-operative
therapy.
Attendance in the operating room is required when surgery
is performed on a patient for whom students obtained an
admission history and performed a physical examination.
Students must assist in the operating room to gain an
understanding of basic surgical techniques, surgical discipline
in relation to asepsis, and care of the unconscious patient.
The more common post-operative complications must be
recognized. Student follow-ups of patients are required (for
example, pathology, radiology, rehabilitation medicine).
Procedures that involve manual skills, such as venipuncture,
placing and removing sutures, and urethral catheterization are
incorporated into the surgical rotation. Initially, students are
under direct supervision. After demonstrating proficiency, they
are indirectly supervised.
Obstetrics/Gynecology
Paul Kastell, MD, Interim Chair
The goals of the clinical rotation in obstetrics/gynecology
are to provide students with knowledge and experience in
managing the normal and abnormal changes that occur
during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the puerperium, and
in diagnosing and treating gynecological disorders. Students
become proficient in taking histories from and examining
such patients, learning to perform pelvic examinations,
including how to pass a speculum and obtain a cervical smear,
as well as in attending to their patients in the operating and
delivery rooms. Additional student experiences include
the observation of labor, delivery of cases, installation of
intravenous infusions, recording of partograms, helping with
problems of anesthesia, and attendance at special clinics such
as pre- and post-natal care, family planning, infertility, and
high-risk cases. Students attend conferences, lectures, and
teaching rounds. They are expected to follow their patients
carefully, read textbooks and literature referable to their
patients’ problems, and pay special attention to public health
aspects of reproductive medicine, especially as they relate
to maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, sexually
transmitted disease, cancer detection, and human sexuality.
Psychiatry
Amy Hoffman, MD, Interim Chair
The purpose of the rotation is to convey psychiatric concepts,
attitudes, and skills that are needed by all students, regardless
of their future career plans. By the conclusion of the rotation,
students should be able to elicit, organize, and present a full
psychiatric history, perform a mental status examination and
a differential diagnosis, and suggest methods of treatment.
Students will have improved their ability to establish a
physicianpatient relationship and will have acquired knowledge
of psychological factors in physical illness. Students will
demonstrate improved interviewing skills and know the
major indications, uses, and side effects of commonly used
psychotropic drugs. They will become familiar with the major
psychiatric syndromes in children and adolescents, as well
as with the effects on the child/adolescent/family of the
lifedisrupting syndromes of child abuse and substance abuse.
Students will learn detection and treatment of these syndromes,
as well as how to evaluate and manage psychiatric emergencies.
The goal is for students to feel more comfortable with
psychiatric patients, and, ultimately, possess an understanding
of biological, psychological, and social determinant behavior.
Students must fully work up at least one patient a week. The
history and mental status examination are presented to the
preceptor and the case is discussed. Students must follow each
patient’s progress throughout the duration of the rotation.
Students must attend ward rounds and outpatient sessions.
Attendance will be expected at case conferences and seminars.
Special experiences are recommended. These include
attendance at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and visits to
local mental health facilities, county, and/or state hospitals,
addiction programs, and any other special programs in the
vicinity of the hospital. Observation and participation in group
therapy, pre-discharge, and post-discharge group management
are required.
Pediatrics
Phyllis Weiner, MD, Chair
The goal of the rotation in pediatrics is to allow students
to acquire the basic knowledge of the normal physical,
mental, and emotional development of children. Students
learn how this development is influenced by medical,
social, and educational factors, as well as understand the
common disorders and diseases of childhood, especially
their diagnosis, management, and prevention. Students will
be taught to be aware of the special needs of the newborn,
the handicapped child, and the adolescent. An integral part
of the rotation is the opportunity to acquire the necessary
skills of taking a pediatric history, to examine children of all
ages, and to acquire experience in evaluating the essential
clinical information so that a coherent plan of management
can be formulated and explained to the parents and, as
appropriate, to the child. Students learn to appreciate the
value of a confident but sympathetic approach to the child
and the family while recognizing and accepting the limits of
that unit’s expectations and understanding. Student reading
is structured during the six weeks so that they first become
acquainted with the normal child and then learn history taking
and physical examination, reactions of children to illness and
hospitalization, the principles of infant feeding, and fluid and
drug therapy.

Emergency Medicine
Theodore Gaeta, DO, MPH, Chair
The goal of the rotation in emergency medicine is to teach
medical students the necessary skills to take care of patients
with a wide variety of undifferentiated urgent and emergent
conditions. Students learn how to approach patients with
common and potentially life-threatening complaints (such
as chest pain, headache, abdominal pain, and many others).
Emphasis is placed on teaching how to develop a working
differential diagnosis and how to appropriately narrow it.
During the rotation, students have the opportunity to
gain proficiency in rapidly collecting data and performing
focused physical examinations appropriate for the acutely or
emergently ill patient. Students function as an effective and
essential part of the emergency medical team in the patient
assessment, stabilization, and management of a variety of acute
medical and surgical conditions. Students learn to formulate
appropriately organized and succinct medical records and
problem lists. Students are familiarized with the indications,
limitations, and methodology of emergency department (ED)
diagnostic procedures and introduced to the multifaceted
psychological, social, and economic challenges faced in an
emergency medical setting. Students function under the
direct supervision of the ED faculty. During the rotation,
students attend departmental conferences, lectures, skills
labs, and teaching rounds. Evaluations are based on clinical
performance, written examination, and case-log presentations.
Family Medicine and General Practice
Everett Schlam, MD, Chair
The goals of the family medicine and general practice
rotation are to ensure that all medical students have a full
understanding and appreciation of an integrative approach
to the care of patients, families, and communities. Students
will be introduced to the aspects of family medicine that
are applicable to all fields of medical practice, including
comprehensive and continuous care provided by family
physicians to patients of all ages. The importance of family
systems and the impact of chronic illness on patients and their
families will be incorporated into patient care. Students will
accompany precept physicians performing patient care in the
office setting, nursing home, and house calls. Participation in
community services involving health care will be encouraged.
By the end of the rotation, students will be expected to
perform and present a focused patient history and physical
examination to diagnose and manage patients. Students will
be able to provide effective patient education and utilize
evidence-based decision making in clinical practice. Students
will use the Fifth Edition of Sloan’s Essentials of Family
Medicine as a text for the rotation.

Master of Science Degrees
at St. George’s University
The general policies, procedures, and requirements to
earn a master’s degree at St. George’s University follow
those of the Graduate Studies Program (GSP) of the
University. The specific program in each department
is defined by the rules developed within these GSP
guidelines by the departmental Graduate Affairs
Committee (GAC). The chair of the GAC is responsible
for administration of the departmental program. Many
departments will offer a research/thesis program and
some may elect to also offer a non-thesis program.
Admission
Application must be made through the SGU Graduate
Studies Program. All requirements of the GSP and
the GAC of the specific department must be met for
acceptance into the program. Admission to the master’s
program will be based on the following:
1. Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores or
equivalent assessment;
2. Undergraduate grade point average (minimum 3.0 on
a 4.0 scale);
3. Letters of recommendation;
4. Proficiency in English;
5. Completion of prerequisite courses, if required.
Advanced Standing and Transfer of Credits
Up to 12 transfer credits can be made from a prior
graduate degree program or during the course of
the master’s degree from approved universities.
Recommendation for transfer of credits for advanced
standing and for acceptance of non-SGU courses will be
determined by the departmental GAC and presented to
the Dean of the GSP for approval.
Substitutions within the Program
Courses may be substituted at the discretion of the
departmental GAC.
Teaching Requirements
At the discretion of the head of the department and
following the recommendation of the departmental GAC,
students may be required to serve as teaching assistants
or instructors in departmental courses. Students who are
required to teach will normally be remunerated for this
service.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
For students to maintain satisfactory academic progress,
a GPA of at least 3.0 (B) and a passing grade in all pass/
fail courses must be obtained. If the GPA falls below 3.0,
students will be placed on academic probation and must
correct the deficiency within the stated period of time, as
determined by the Committee for Satisfactory Academic
Progress and Professional Standards. Failure to do so may
result in dismissal. Students must achieve a “B” or better
in all departmental courses. A “C” in any departmental
course will require that students repeat the course at its
next offering. A course may only be repeated once.
Students’ academic progress will be reviewed biannually
by the departmental GAC to identify and deal with any
academic or nonacademic problems. A report of each
meeting will be forwarded to the Dean of the Graduate
Studies Program for any further action. Students who
are dismissed may appeal through the established GSP
appeals process.
Supervisory Committee
By the beginning of the second term, students are
expected to have selected a mentor with whom they
wish to work. For students in the research/thesis
program, both student and mentor will determine the
research project and, within two months of selecting a
mentor, both will choose a thesis supervisory committee
(SC) from faculty whose interests and expertise will
complement the research project. The SC will oversee
all aspects of research, administer the thesis, and review
students’ progress. The SC will be composed of at least
three members, with at least two faculty members from
the department and one from outside the department.
50

Thesis Preparation
Students under the direction of student mentors will prepare
the master’s thesis. Members of the SC will act as consultants
during the research and must approve the thesis during its
development, as well as in its final form. At least four weeks
should be allowed for committee review and revision of drafts
of the thesis.

Graduate Program Course Descriptions
Graduate Studies Program
Anatomical Sciences
Marios Loukas, MD, PhD, Chair
Educational Development
ANAT 801
This course will give graduate students the opportunity to
enhance their general anatomical knowledge and explore
in greater detail areas of the body that were covered only
superficially in previous coursework. This course will
enable students to enter their fields of interest prepared
to effectively teach pertinent concepts and applied
anatomy in that field, as well as allow students to prepare
a body of work with educational value for future students
by developing educational materials through dissection
or other media forms, such as computer or medical
imaging. Students will learn various techniques involved
in the preparation of cadaveric material for display and
teaching, including dry bone/ligamentous preps, plastic
embedding, and various plastination procedures.
Special Regional Dissection
ANAT 802
This course allows students to hone their dissection
expertise, as well as their academic and three-dimensional
understanding of a particular body area through detailed
cadaveric dissection.
Students will produce prosecutions for the department
while gaining a chance to learn a particular region of the
body in great and professional-level detail, well beyond
that covered in the standard anatomy course. Project
topics focus around four regions, which are head and
neck; back and thorax; extremities; and abdomen, pelvis,
and perineum. Each regional dissection will be limited
to the appropriate area and will be a complete dissection
of all the structures within the topic area, either through
one or a series of dissections. Each project will be
researched, dissected, and presented to the faculty and
peers of students involved.
Instructional Development I/
Instructional Development II
ANAT 803/ANAT 813
Instructional Development is an elective or selective
to assist students with the development of their
teaching skills and topic proficiency by providing
teaching opportunities in the core anatomical
science courses (Human Gross and Developmental
Anatomy, Embryology, Histology and Cell Biology, or
Neuroanatomy). This course is designed to provide
students with practical teaching experience as a teaching
assistant. They must either pass the course that they wish
to teach with a minimum passing grade of a “B,” or they
must have permission of the course director to waive such
a prerequisite. As graduate teaching assistants, they will
be required to attend and teach in the relevant labs, in
addition to the preparation and delivery of two lectures
throughout the term to faculty and, upon approval of
faculty, to students of the course.
This practical experience is felt to be a crucial part of
any educator’s training. Students are eligible to take this
course twice. The first is Instructional Development I
(ANAT 803) and the second is Instructional Development
II (ANAT 813). Students cannot apply these to the same
core subject. If they elect to take both courses, they must
select two of the four core anatomy courses (Human
Gross and Developmental Anatomy, Embryology,
Histology and Cell Biology, or Neuroanatomy). Letter
grades will be based on the course director’s evaluation
and the delivered lectures to colleagues and other course
instructors, as well as to students of the course. The
subjective evaluation of attendance and work effort in
relevant labs, as well as the quality of oral presentations
will be considered as a component of the grade. It is
intended that students will be formally evaluated at the
end of the term by the students of the course, but it is
up to the course director as to whether or not to use this
feedback in their evaluation.
Seminar in Anatomical Sciences
ANAT 804
A core course requirement for the MSc and PhD, this
course aims to provide an awareness of important current
issues in clinical anatomy education and improve student
understanding of both the educational issues confronting
the profession and the ethical issues associated with
the use of human tissue. Members of the department
will meet with graduate students to discuss topics, to be
determined by the course director, that are issues in the
field of clinical anatomy education. The seminar will be
held three times each term and graduate students will
participate in the seminar for a minimum of four terms.
The course is graded as satisfactory/unsatisfactory and
performance will be determined by the level of student
participation in the discussions over the four terms.
Graduate Gross Anatomy
ANAT 820
An independent study course that aims to provide
graduate students with the knowledge of gross anatomy
necessary for postgraduate teaching, Graduate Gross
Anatomy goes beyond the level attained in the Human
Gross and Developmental Anatomy (ANAT 550) course
and includes historical perspectives and anatomical
variation. Students will be responsible for preparing
full-body prosection following the same sequence as the
dissection in Human Gross and Developmental Anatomy.
The prosection will be used as a teaching specimen for
current ANAT 550 students. Students will work under
the supervision of a full-time member of the department.
Students will be responsible for assigned readings for the
area prosected and will be evaluated by oral examination
periodically. The course will be taken the term
immediately following the completion of Human Gross
and Developmental Anatomy.
52

Anatomy Prosection and Preservation
ANAT 831
The goals of this course are to improve students’
understanding of a region or regions, improve their dissection
and presentation skills, develop a body of high-quality teaching
materials with anatomic purpose, and develop the ability to
discuss and educate others on a particular region of the body.
Graduate students are provided the opportunity to enhance
their general anatomical knowledge and explore in far greater
detail areas of the body that were covered only superficially in
their previous coursework. They will learn the finer anatomical
points of the body, as well as be exposed to and trained in
the various means of specimen preparation, preservation,
and display available today. They will be able to revisit
anatomical areas of interest to obtain a deeper understanding
of those areas, in addition to the production and study of
detailed anatomical preparations for future application in
their teaching careers. This one- or two-term course will
give participants the opportunity to undertake detailed,
professional-quality dissections of the human body. The various
techniques involved in the preparation of cadaveric material
for display and teaching include dry bone/ligamentous preps,
plastic embedding, and various plastination procedures. This
course gives a letter grade and involves 24 lecture hours and
70 lab hours. A formal 50-minute seminar/presentation must
be presented to departmental faculty and invited guests a
minimum of twice per term, as well as a formal presentation of
the students’ finished program projects will be given to peers
and faculty.

Admission to the
Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program
Students should apply to St. George’s University School of
Medicine for the Doctor of Medicine degree, noting that they
wish to be considered for the Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars
Program.
Selection Factors
The Committee on Admission takes seriously its charge of
choosing future physicians who will contribute positively
to the world’s community of health care practitioners. The
selection of students is made after careful consideration of
many aspects, including academic ability; emotional and
professional maturity; academic achievement; community
service; indicators of responsibility and motivation; Medical
College Admission Test (MCAT) scores, when applicable;
health professions experience; and letters of recommendation
regarding the applicant’s personal qualities, character,
motivation, and academic abilities. Candidates for admission
will be invited for an interview.
Admission Process
The Office of Admission will acknowledge receipt of
candidates’ applications within two weeks of their arrival.
Candidates will be informed of any required supporting
documents missing at that time. Within one month after
receipt of all application materials, candidates will receive
notice that applications are complete and being reviewed to
determine whether interviews will be granted.
The Office of Admission encourages candidates who have
been approved for an interview to request interviews in
Grenada and will schedule one upon the applicant’s request.
The University recognizes that financial considerations may
prevent many candidates who reside at great distances from
Grenada from choosing this option. Interviews, therefore,
may be conducted in the United States, the United Kingdom,
Africa, the Middle East, the Far East, the Caribbean, or other
locations that best serve the diverse applicant pool.
Candidates are advised that being granted an interview is no
guarantee of acceptance; the interview itself plays a significant
part in the decision by the Committee on Admission.
Applicants are notified of the decision of the Committee on
Admission. A record of the notification is kept for one year.
Students’ acceptance into the School of Medicine is granted
upon the presumption by the Committee on Admission that
(1) all courses currently being taken by applicants will be
completed prior to registration, and (2) all statements made
by applicants during the admission process, whether oral,
written, or in submission of academic documentation are
true and correct. If it is subsequently discovered that false or
inaccurate information was submitted, the University may
nullify candidates’ acceptance or, if students are registered,
dismiss the student. Complete health history reports must be
submitted prior to registration. Students must submit a signed
Acknowledgment of Admission along with a nonrefundable
tuition deposit to reserve a seat in the class.
Prospective students must also include an additional 500-word
essay, which demonstrates a commitment to dedicating at
least a part of their professional lives to practicing medicine in
developing countries.

The Orientation Process
The Office of Admission and the administration as a whole
consider a realistic assessment of the medical program and
the student experience in Grenada, the United States, and
the United Kingdom, a necessary component of a responsible
decision to attend St. George’s University School of Medicine.
Therefore, accepted and prospective candidates are invited
to visit the campus in Grenada during the academic year, if
possible. Accepted candidates who are unable to do so are
encouraged to attend one of the orientation meetings for
entering students that are held before registration, usually in
New York City, Los Angeles, Toronto, Trinidad, and London.
The Dean of Enrolment Planning, faculty members, graduates,
students, and others will attend the orientation meeting in
order to guide prospective students in making their decisions
and preparing for medical school.
Advanced Standing Applications
Applications for advanced standing are considered rarely,
and only for the beginning of the second year of the medical
program. The Committee on Admission does not seek or
encourage transfer applications. Candidates seeking advanced
standing should write to the Chairman of the Committee on
Admission to determine whether their applications will be
considered. Letters should include the citizenship of the
candidate, the prior medical school with years attended, a brief
summary of academic achievement, and the reason for leaving.
Should the Committee on Admission consider the application,
candidates will be notified of the procedures for application.
MD/Dual Degree Programs
BS/MD Degree
Students interested in the BS/MD degree must submit an
application to the Office of the University Registrar and the
Office of the Premedical Program during their first term of
enrollment. Students who enter the final year of the
premedical program directly (e.g., with Advanced Levels
or Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination [CAPE])
cannot earn a BS degree without spending additional
semesters in the program.
MD/MSc, MD/MBA, and MD/MPH Degrees
Students applying to the dual graduate degree programs
must first meet the admission requirements for the Doctor of
Medicine program. Please refer to the Doctor of Medicine
program admission requirements for details.
In addition to the professional application, applicants must
submit the graduate addendum insert that accompanies the
application. Once candidates are offered admission into
the professional program, the Committee on Admission will
evaluate the potential for success in the dual degree program,
and render an admission decision based on the information
provided.

Finances
Financial Obligations
Tuition
All tuition fees and other University charges must be
paid before students are permitted to register for classes
(see tuition and fees chart on separate insert); however,
students waiting for the delivery of their student loans
may provisionally register for classes, in accordance with
the provisional registration policies and procedures
outlined in the SGU Student Manual. Responsibility
for payment of tuition and all other University charges
is solely that of the student. Bills are sent via email to
students’ University email accounts approximately one
month prior to the due date. In the event students do not
receive a bill, it is their responsibility to contact the Office
of Student Finances to request proper billing.
Housing
University policy requires that entering medical,
veterinary medical, and graduate students live in
campus residence halls for their first term; students
entering into the premedical, preveterinary medical,
and undergraduate programs must live in the campus
residence halls for their first year and will be billed
accordingly. Students will be assigned housing and
roommates in order of their acceptance. If students have
a specific roommate request, it should be indicated to the
housing coordinator. After this initial period on campus,
upperclassmen will be accommodated on campus
according to availability by a lottery system and will be
billed accordingly (see housing rates on separate insert).
There are many houses, apartments, and efficiency
units close to campus. All matriculated students on the
Grenada campus must live in approved housing, either
on or off campus, at the discretion of the University.
There are currently no housing accommodations
available on campus for students with children or pets.
Students residing off campus are responsible for their
own housing expenses. The University reserves the right
to require students to live on campus. During clinical
terms, students are responsible for their own room and
board; although, the University and affiliated hospitals
may provide some assistance.
University Refund Policy
University Charges
Students who withdraw or take an unapproved leave
of absence, fail to return from an approved leave of
absence, are dismissed, or otherwise fail to complete the
term for which they were charged, will receive a refund
of University charges based on a pro rata calculation. If
students withdraw during the first 60 percent of a term,
University charges are prorated based on the percentage
of the term that has elapsed. If withdrawals take place
after the 60 percent point, full University charges remain
due. The refund is determined by students’ effective
dates of separation, which are the last recorded dates
of attendance (LDA). Students who can demonstrate
unusual and compelling reasons for leaving school may
appeal for an exception to the refund policy by writing a
letter to the Office of Student Finances.
Return of Financial Aid
In accordance with US Federal Title IV Regulations, the
same pro rata schedule is used to determine the amount
of Title IV funds students have earned at the time of
withdrawal. Refunds made on behalf of financial aid
recipients are distributed in the following order:
1. Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans
2. Subsidized Federal Stafford Loans
3. Federal GradPLUS
Financial Aid
Approximately 80 percent of students enrolled in the
Doctor of Medicine program use financial aid to pay
for part or all of their educational expenses. The Office
of Financial Aid administers the financial aid programs
available to St. George’s University students; assists in
financial planning, budgeting, and completion of the
application documents; and counsels students regarding
management of their debt.
Applicants who wish to review the process or receive
counseling prior to acceptance are welcome to contact
the Office of Financial Aid.
The financial aid process is described in detail with
instructions and application forms on the University
website at www.sgu.edu. Upon acceptance to the School
of Medicine, each student is provided with an email
account, user ID, and password in order to access the
member’s center. Applications for financial aid can be
completed almost entirely online.

Partial scholarships are available to some entering
students who demonstrate financial need and/or
academic excellence. Those students who meet the
criteria for one or more of the programs offered are
encouraged to apply. Applications for institutional aid
are available on the University website (www.sgu.edu).
Although an application may be reviewed for several
programs, a recipient generally will receive only one type
of scholarship. The University participates in US and
Canadian government loan programs and several private
educational loan programs offered by private lenders.
The credit-based private educational loan programs are
available to US students. In some cases, other students
who can provide a creditworthy US cosigner may also
obtain these loans. US students who meet the eligibility
76

equirements are able (if necessary) to finance their entire
cost of attendance through loans. Non-US students whose
governments do not provide scholarship and loan programs
usually need substantial personal and private resources to pay
for costs of attendance not covered by the partial scholarships
and loans made available through the University.
Students may wish to research and pursue outside sources of
financial aid; however, the responsibility for paying for the
cost of attendance is solely that of the student. It is important
that students anticipating the need for financial assistance
at any time during their medical education undertake early
long-term planning. The Office of Financial Aid welcomes
the opportunity to help students develop these plans.
Financial aid is used only to supplement personal and/or
family financial resources. In some cases, because both the
personal contribution and sources of financial aid are limited,
students may be unable to enroll in medical school. Students
who believe they may be unable to attend the School due to
financial constraints should call the Office of Financial Aid for
information and counseling.
University-Sponsored Scholarships
A small number of partial scholarships are granted to
members of each entering class. Awards for the full cost of
attendance are not offered. In order for students to plan in
advance for the financial obligations associated with attending
St. George’s University, most applications and awards are
made prior to students’ registration in the School of Medicine
and for the entire length of the program. All awards must be
used to defray the cost of tuition and are credited directly to
students’ accounts. Awards are made for the length of the
students’ entire curriculum and awarded per term. The Office
of Financial Aid, in accordance with guidelines set by the
School’s financial aid committee, makes the selection of award
recipients. Award determinations are based on academic
excellence, the degree of the family’s financial need, and the
availability of funds, in addition to the scholarship’s specified
criteria. Students’ ability to finance their education beyond
the extent of the financial aid award is also an important
selection criterion. Applicants should be aware that the
funding is limited and the quality of the applicants is generally
very competitive. Unfortunately, awards cannot be made to all
deserving students.
Applications are available on the University website at
www.sgu.edu. Application deadlines are December 1 for class
commencing in January and July 1 for class commencing in
August.

of the highest academic caliber to pursue their career goals
without excessive financial burdens, we have developed
this scholarship. SGU offers a state-of-the-art campus,
accomplished professors, and useful student support services
that contribute to an unforgettable learning experience.
The Commonwealth-Grenada St. George’s University
Scholarship Program: School of Medicine
Academically gifted students with limited resources deserve
the ability to reach their potential. SGU recognizes this,
which is why in January 2007, the University launched The
Commonwealth-Grenada St. George’s University Scholarship
Program (CGSP).
The program includes 75 scholarships, five of which will be
awarded to students entering the Doctor of Medicine program.
The scholarships will assist in providing well-trained doctors
to enhance health care delivery in developing nations. These
doctors will be well equipped not only to help individual
patients, but to contribute to their nation’s health care systems
as a whole. A Commonwealth-Grenada St. George’s University
Scholarship Committee established by the University awards
the scholarships. Scholarships have been awarded to students
from ten different Commonwealth countries. While the
US $4 million program will fully fund tuition, students will
require separate support for living and traveling expenses.
A prospective scholarship candidate must be a resident citizen
of a Commonwealth country who has been accepted to St.
George’s University School of Medicine. SGU will maintain
strict adherence to its admission requirements. Award
determinations will be made by the Commonwealth-Grenada
St. George’s University Scholarship Committee based primarily
on academic excellence, financial need, and the student’s
commitment to the field of medicine. Prospective scholarship
candidates must be accepted to St. George’s University School
of Medicine and submit the scholarship application with an
essay no later than September 15 for the January class; the
deadline for the August class is April 15.

reasons, have suffered undue financial hardships that affect
their ability to pay for their education. These awards are
grants-in-aid and do not have to be repaid.
Loan Programs
Government-Sponsored Loan Programs
United States
The Federal Direct Loan is the US government’s student loan
program. These loans are available only to students in the fouryear
Doctor of Medicine program. The program consists of
three different loan programs that combined have a maximum
borrowing limit up to the cost of attendance per academic
year.
The Subsidized Federal Direct Loan allows students to borrow
up to US $8,500. The interest accrued while students are in
school is paid by the US government. Students are responsible
only for the interest that accrues after repayment begins. The
Unsubsidized Federal Direct Loan allows students to borrow
an additional US $12,000 per academic year. The Federal
Direct GradPLUS loan allows a student to borrow up to the
remaining cost of attendance. Students are responsible for all
78

accruing interest on the Unsubsidized and GradPLUS loans;
students may choose to repay the interest while in school
or defer it until repayment begins when they graduate or
otherwise cease to be enrolled at least half-time. Under certain
conditions, the borrower may continue to postpone repayment
during the medical residency.
The interest rates as of July 1, 2006, are fixed. In addition,
students pay a two to four percent origination fee/insurance
premium. To receive Federal student loans, recipients must
be either permanent residents or citizens of the United States,
be enrolled in the Doctor of Medicine program at least halftime,
maintain satisfactory academic progress, and not be in
default on any prior US government guaranteed loan. These
guidelines are subject to statutory and/or regulatory changes
in the US Higher Education Act and the Title IV Program
Regulations. Eligibility is based on the credit worthiness of the
student.
Canada
Students from most Canadian provinces are eligible for
Canadian Federal and/or Provincial Student Loans. The funds
are advanced by a Canadian bank or credit union selected by
students. The loans are interest-subsidized by the Canadian
Government while students are enrolled in school. Eligible
students usually borrow $210 (CAD) per instructional week
of study; however, the amount can vary in different provinces.
Interested Canadian students should contact their banks
and provincial Canadian Student Loan offices for details and
applications.
Private Educational Loans
Several private educational lenders in the United States offer
SGU students alternate loans that are intended to supplement
the federal loan programs in the United States. Many students
use these loans to meet all or part of their cost of attendance.
These private loan programs are all credit-based and offered
only to students who meet the credit requirements determined
by the lender. Students who do not meet other minimum
credit criteria may also be able to obtain loans using a cosigner.
All international students, will be required to have a US or
Permanent Resident cosigner. Review the terms of these loans
regarding repayment. Some loans may require an interest
payment while in school.
The Office of Financial Aid provides extensive credit services
to students in order to help them understand the eligibility
requirements and terms and conditions. The Office of
Financial Aid maintains a list of private educational lenders
offering programs to SGU students. You have the right to
choose to borrow your loan from any lender who participates
in the program under which you are eligible to borrow.
Students can apply for these loans online at the lender website.
Once credit is approved, the Financial Aid Office will certify
the student’s eligibility for the loan.
Further information about credit services and alternate loan
programs is available on the University website at www.sgu.edu.

Relevant Organizations
Parents’ Coalition of SGUSOM
The Parents’ Coalition is a separate organization,
founded in 1985, in response to a changing political
atmosphere that affected the School of Medicine
students. The coalition has had significant impact on
legislation at both state and federal levels, and today
students enjoy the progress that the coalition has made
over the years. Presently, the coalition remains politically
oriented, monitoring the changes that will be occurring
in health care and medical education. The Parents’
Coalition is a nonprofit organization. Meetings are held
at least once a year. The coalition welcomes membership
from all students, parents, or friends of St. George’s
University School of Medicine.

National Resident Matching Program
The function of the National Resident Matching
Program (NRMP) is to match applicants seeking
postgraduate residency positions in the United States with
institutions offering those positions. Students are given
the opportunity in the final year to rank preferences
confidentially. The students are matched to training
programs ranked highest that offer prospective graduate
positions. Students and graduates of foreign medical
schools may enroll as individuals and will be retained
in the match program if they submit proof of having
passed the examinations required to obtain the ECFMG
certification by the date of submission of rank order lists
in January of each year. ECFMG certification must be
obtained before beginning residency training.
Residency applications are now generally done through
the Electronic Residence Application Service (ERAS).
International medical students obtain the necessary
software to complete the electronic format application
from the ECFMG and return it to them for processing in
the early Fall, prior to the expected start of a residency
in July. Candidates who intend to enter the United States
as exchange visitors must also be able to qualify under
the conditions of applicable US law. Residency program
directors must determine that alien students of foreign
medical schools will be able to obtain a visa if matched,
that applicants are ECFMG-certified, and that applicants
are also eligible under state law for any license or permit
that may be necessary to study as residents.
Information and materials may be obtained from:

Educational Commission for
Foreign Medical Graduates
Medical students who are considering the practice
of medicine in the United States should familiarize
themselves with the components of licensure for
students/physicians who have attended foreign medical
schools. There is now in place a single, three-step
examination process for achieving medical licensure in
the United States:
1. USMLE Step One
2. USMLE Step Two
a. Clinical Knowledge (CK – Written Exam)
b. Clinical Skills (CS – Clinical Skills Exam)
3. USMLE Step Three
USMLE Step One is a test of basic science knowledge and
is usually taken at the completion of the Basic Medical
Sciences curriculum. Step Two is a two-part examination
given during the final year of the Medical Sciences.
Clinical Knowledge is a written examination. Clinical
Skills is a bedside examination that utilizes standardized
patients to test students’ abilities in clinical skills, (for
example, medical history taking, physical examination
and diagnosis of the patient, and composition of a
written record of patient contact). Spoken English is also
assessed at this time. USMLE Step Three is administered
after graduation by individual state licensing boards.
Information on the scheduling of and application
for these examinations is distributed to students in a
timely fashion during their medical programs. More
information and a pamphlet can be obtained from:

Our Students, Our Faculty, Our Alumni
Alumni Affairs
Postgraduate Records
St. George’s University School of Medicine has a
continuing commitment to its graduates and other
former students. The services of the Office of the
Registrar include assistance to graduates who wish
to sit for qualifying examinations, obtain licensure,
secure postgraduate training programs, and achieve
employment. The Registrar maintains the records of
all graduates; certifies their medical education; and
sends transcripts, letters of recommendation, and other
supporting documentation to places of employment,
educational institutions, and government agencies.
Records are released only upon the written request
of graduates and the subsequent authorization of the
Registrar. There is a fee for these services.
This office also provides access to information needed to
address the examination and licensing requirements of
state and national boards. Although it is not a placement
service, the office acts as a liaison between graduates
involved in job searches and medical institutions that
have indicated an interest in employing graduates of the
University. Statistical data about postgraduate training,
examination results, medical specialty associations, and
licenses are kept on file and are continually updated to
enhance postgraduate professional contacts. Much of
this information is received from graduates voluntarily.
The University urges its graduates to report regularly
all accomplishments, such as postgraduate residency
positions acquired, licenses issued, and specialty
board certifications. The Office of the Registrar works
in conjunction with the Alumni Association to help
graduates keep in touch with one another and to inform
them of developments within the University. It is the
University’s goal to provide a basis of support
that allows this network of graduates to continue to
benefit from the trust and cooperation they share as
members of the St. George’s University community.
Licensure
Applicants for licensure should bear in mind that it is
their responsibility to see that their applications are
properly processed in accordance with the requirements
of the particular authority from which licenses are sought.
The Office of the Registrar maintains some information
on the requirements for licensure in the 54 American
jurisdictions, and in many international jurisdictions;
however, the University is not an agent of any licensing
authority. For precise information, it is students’ or
graduates’ responsibility to seek that information from
the licensing agency in the region, state, or country where
licensure is being sought. The Office of the Registrar,
during the paperwork process of licensure, will advise
individuals on the role of the University in the process.
Alumni Association
The St. George’s University School of Medicine Alumni
Association, an autonomous nonprofit organization,
was founded in May 1981 to help its graduates achieve
their educational and professional aspirations. A large
membership of graduates, transferees to US schools, and
current students is served by a substantial commitment
to maintain the fellowship cultivated in Grenada. Since
1984, this has been accomplished by alumni reunions and
the alumni newsletter, a forum
for the membership that keeps them informed of
educational, professional, and personal news of interest.
All graduates, transferees, and students are urged to
enroll and enjoy the collective spirit and experience of
the membership.
The Alumni Relations Office has been set up to aid in the
area of Alumni Affairs. Please visit the website at http://
alumnirelations.sgu.edu.
