- Graduates are trained to embody the six core CanMEDS physician roles — medical expert, communicator, collaborator, leader, health advocate, and scholar — providing patient- and client-centered medical and public-health care rather than exam-focused knowledge alone.
- Graduating physicians are equipped to gather and interpret information, contribute to clinical decision-making, and perform diagnostic and treatment procedures within their scope of practice.
- The six-role framework keeps pathways open to further specialization after graduation.
- Students may take part in exchange programs at partner institutions in more than 160 countries through GLU’s international cooperation network, gaining short-term study experience abroad.
