FiS prepared me not only to become a medical student but as a holistic individual. Although self-directed learning was implemented slowly, we had good guidance from the lecturers who were really helpful. I personally feel that it was not all work because we did have fun especially during the Cross Boundary Studies. Furthermore the module promoted critical thinking skills. These projects served as a platform for us to learn all the qualities that a team player and a physician should have; such as punctuality, responsibility, trustworthiness and commitment.
Lee Sook Yee IMU Medical StudentFIS studies laid a solid foundation in my healthcare professional learning journey. Although it was quite intense, it was fun to get along with a group of peers (where I developed friendships) with the same interest and the dedicated lecturers. One thing special about FIS in IMU is that the Cross Boundary Studies (a community service project) during the third semester which provided me a platform to develop my soft skills and gave me an idea on how to initiate a project on our own. This module has enriched my experience and broadened my perspective.
Yen Pei Ling IMU Dietetics with Nutrition StudentMy reason for choosing to do a pre-university course in IMU is mainly because of the scholarship I acquired from Yayasan Khazanah. Out of the 2 universities on offer, I selected IMU because it is a more established medical university and has a longer track-record of excellence in Malaysia. In fact, IMU is Malaysia’s most established private healthcare university. Based on the opinions that I gathered from both my parents and professionals I met during school programmes, the teaching staff in IMU is some of the best in the field. To quote one of the seniors, “if they’re in IMU, then you’ll probably come across their names in some of the big journals.
