Reflections on Competency-Based Curriculum Reform in Master’s Graduate Education of Basic Medical Sciences

The cultivation of job competency is a core objective of master’s graduate education in basic medical sciences and plays a critical role in students' career development. Curriculum reform is a key strategy for enhancing the quality of graduate education. It not only lays the foundation for training high-caliber medical professionals but also facilitates adaptation to the evolving medical landscape, advances scientific research, and promotes the standardization of medical education. Therefore, by focusing on job competency development, we should establish a curriculum-based training pathway for master’s education in basic medical sciences that meets the demands of the new era and aligns with the needs of medical development and public health. This paper presents the reform and implementation of a training model at our university, aiming to provide insights into the improvement of medical graduate education in China and to contribute to raising its overall quality.

Abstract

The cultivation of job competency is a core objective of master’s graduate education in basic medical sciences and plays a critical role in students' career development. Curriculum reform is a key strategy for enhancing the quality of graduate education. It not only lays the foundation for training high-caliber medical professionals but also facilitates adaptation to the evolving medical landscape, advances scientific research, and promotes the standardization of medical education. Therefore, by focusing on job competency development, we should establish a curriculum-based training pathway for master’s education in basic medical sciences that meets the demands of the new era and aligns with the needs of medical development and public health. This paper presents the reform and implementation of a training model at our university, aiming to provide insights into the improvement of medical graduate education in China and to contribute to raising its overall quality.
