Program Overview

Saba’s curriculum, crafted by U.S.-based faculty, provides a foundation for success in clinical care and beyond. Aligned with leading U.S. medical schools, our medical program spans ten semesters, encompassing focused academic and clinical studies in both Basic Science and Clinical Science.

Basic Science

Students complete the first part of their education – Basic Science – over the course of five semesters on the Saba campus. In Basic Science you will build the knowledge base about health and disease of the human body that will serve you throughout the rest of your medical career.

To effectively teach and assess the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed by all physicians, Saba has adopted an organ-system approach, which incorporates small-group, hands-on learning sessions. Clinical skills instruction begins in the first week, and is integrated with and progresses throughout the Basic Science curriculum. Students read and analyze current medical literature as it relates to each content area. Research is integrated within the Basic Science curriculum and culminates with students producing a publication – quality paper.

Clinical Medicine

The Clinical Medicine curriculum at Saba University School of Medicine takes place in the second half of the academic program: Semesters 6 to 10 – your last step before earning your degree and entering a residency program.

For your clinical education, you will leave the Saba campus and join students from other schools at teaching hospitals in the United States and Canada. Saba carefully manages the clinical program to ensure that there are enough clerkship positions to enable our students to complete their clinical semesters without delay. During these clinical clerkships, students work directly with physicians and hospital staff, conducting physical examinations, history taking, case presentations, laboratory analysis, and attending workshops, conferences, and grand rounds. Your onsite experience in the hospital is supplemented by additional case studies and associated assignments.
