The International Foundation Year – Health Science programme, offered by DIFC, is an intensive 7 – 9 month foundation course, designed to prepare international students for a place at medical or dentistry school.
During their studies, students on the IFY Health Science programme will cover four main academic subjects – English for Academic Purposes, Mathematics for Science, Chemistry and Biology. Alongside these subjects, students will also gain key skills, such as:
Critical thinking
Problem solving
Time management
Presentation skills
Academic writing
ICT skills
A central component of the programme is the personalised guidance and support students receive when it comes to applying to medical or dentistry school. Weekly tutorials help students to learn about their options, prepare stand-out personal statements and practice for university entrance interviews and exams, which are an important part of the admissions process for medical and dentistry school.
