Perception of medical students at public universities in Uganda on their education environment: a cross-sectional study
The study's findings indicate that medical students' perceptions of their learning environment are just above average. This suggests a need for improvement, particularly in the atmosphere and social support, to ensure the training of a robust health workforce. The results of this study should motivate stakeholders to initiate changes that will enhance the quality of medical education in Uganda.
