MBBS/Doctor of Philosophy (MBBS/PhD) The MBBS/PhD is a full-time combined programme extending over not less than nine years and leading to the award of both MBBS and PhD degrees upon graduation. If you are admitted to this programme, you will pursue full-time research under the supervision of Faculty teachers and undertake coursework prescribed by the Graduate School and the Faculty. You may also attend optional clinical study sessions that are of your interest. An exciting feature of this programme is that you may receive part of your training at internationallyrenowned institutions overseas through the Faculty's international network for research collaborations. HKUMed also has joint PhD/joint educational placement for PhD programmes with King's College London and the University of Toronto. Starting from 2018-19, the HKSAR government has waived PhD composition fees for all local students. In addition, Croucher Foundation Scholarships are available for a maximum of three outstanding MBBS/PhD students each year to cover the monthly postgraduate studentships, research bench fees and allowances for overseas conference attendance and/or exchange.
