چکیده

The College of Medicine at the University of Malawi was open in 1991 as the only medical school in the country (1). Currently, the Medical College trains only medical doctors, although there are plans to train medical laboratory scientists, pharmacists, dentists, and physiotherapists. The College offers postgraduate programs in a number of clinical specializations and a two-year Master of Public Health (MPH) program that was started in 2003. The College also provides a Certificate Course in Tropical Medicine, which is mainly aimed at physicians who received their medical training and/or practiced in the developed world but have an interest in tropical or international health.
