The basic science dealing with normal bodily functions in humans is human physiology
Preclinical postgraduate students were excluded from the study since the study was to understand application of preclinical subject – Physiology in clinical disciplines
Summary
With the scientific advancements and novelty in the field of medical education, there is an evident requirement for constant changes in its educational curriculum, basic sciences in particular. Aims and Objectives: The study was done to find out the views of the postgraduate students with regards to the physiology curriculum and to invite suggestions for improvement. The questionnaire was given to all Postgraduate students who require applying their basic science knowledge in their broad specialties. Results and Discussion: The results revealed that the majority of the students wanted to independently perform and interpret the clinical skills. Teaching learning methods in Physiology includes didactic lectures, practical sessions, tutorials and student seminars under the guidance of teachers. Earlier studies have shown that the students feel that the content of the basic sciences is not relevant to their later clinical work.
