Proposal for the Career Talk "So what's Next?"

Introduction

The project proposed by group A for our final year project is a career talk entitled “So, What’s Next : Life after medical school”. We feel that this project is requisite as a guide for medical students especially those in their final year. We hope that this talk will be able to elucidate students on their options after graduating. This will cover career options, further studies, coping with life as a houseman as well advice on marriage and supporting a family.

The speakers intended for this talk will range from fresh IIUM graduates to seasoned, veteran doctors. Details of this programme are as follows:
