The Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of the Free State (UFS) has launched two guiding documents for medical students for the years 2000 (phase one) and 2004 (phase two). The faculty has been offering a five-year M.B.Ch.B degree since 2000 and subsequently revised the curriculum in 2004 to comply with international developments. As a result, guiding documents detailing the academic and administrative regulations for each phase were compiled. At the launch were, from the left, front: Dr Brenda de Klerk (Phase I chairperson), Prof Elsa de Wet (Phase II chairperson) and Prof Laurika van der Westhuizen (Programme Director); back from left: Prof Gert van Zyl (Head: School of Medicine) and Dr Hennie Geyer (Phase II chairperson)
