Medical students as global citizens: a qualitative study of medical students’ views on global health teaching within the undergraduate medical curriculum

The paper, entitled "Medical students as global citizens: a qualitative study of medical students’ views on global health teaching within the undergraduate medical curriculum", is based on a small-scale qualitative study with UCL(University College London) medical students. It aimed to explore Year 5 medical students’ knowledge and learning about global health issues, as well as their wider perspectives on its relevance to their professional development. The work builds on DERC(Development Education Research Centre)’s long-term interest in global issues within the initial training and professional development of a number of key global professions, such as teaching, medicine and engineering.
