All students graduating from the Faculty of Medicine & Surgery of the University of Malta will be competent professionals who are safe to work in clinical practice. They will be patient-centred, hold a population needs and systems improvement perspective, and communicate well with honesty, compassion and respect. They will be able to make safe, timely and ethical decisions, strive for excellence and work effectively in a multi-disciplinary environment. They will be self-directed, reflective, life-long learners with the ability to critically appraise, adapt to and apply evidence and to recognise their own limitations and accountability.
