Duke-NUS Medical School

Overview

Centrally located in a modern facility on the grounds of Singapore General Hospital, Duke-NUS is Singapore’s first US-style graduate-entry medical school. We draw on the rich medical training and research at Duke University in North Carolina and the outstanding resources at the National University of Singapore (NUS). In addition, Duke-NUS partners with Singapore Healthcare Services (SingHealth) to form an Academic Medicine Institute which integrates three pillars of medicine – clinical care, education and research. We also collaborate with a number of strong research institutions in Singapore, including the National Cancer Centre, the National Heart Centre, the National Eye Centre, the National Skin Centre, the National Neurosciences Institute, and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR).

Offering innovative MD, PhD, and MD-PhD programmes with a focus on medical research, Duke-NUS prepares doctors who are not only skilled in patient care, but who are also well equipped to practise in the rapidly changing world of medicine. We prepare physician leaders who are problem solvers committed to improving the health of individuals and communities through research. At Duke-NUS, we are committed to helping our graduates transform medicine in the 21st century. The Duke-NUS MD degree is jointly awarded by Duke University and the National University of Singapore, while the PhD degree is awarded by the National University of Singapore.
