Xavier University School of Medicine in Aruba and KLE University collaborate to introduce an international medical program geared towards Indian students seeking to practice medicine in the United States and Canada.
In an exciting development for aspiring doctors in India, the Xavier University School of Medicine (XUSOM) and KLE University have joined forces to create an international medical pathway program. This collaborative initiative aims to equip Indian students with the knowledge, skills, and international exposure needed to excel in the competitive medical field and achieve their dream of practicing medicine in North America (US and Canada).
The program begins with students starting their medical education at KLE University’s Belgaum campus in India. After completing pre-health coursework, they will then move on to Xavier University School of Medicine in Aruba for preclinical science training. This structured program combines KLE’s strong foundation in pre-health sciences with Xavier’s globally recognized medical curriculum and clinical training opportunities in the United States.
Key features of this pathway include a globally aligned curriculum taught by experienced and highly qualified faculty, aimed at equipping students with the knowledge and skills to succeed in the competitive medical field. The program is designed specifically for high school graduates and aspiring doctors aiming to practice in North America.
Integration of clinical training in the United States is a crucial aspect of the program, as it helps students meet residency and licensing requirements in the US and Canada. XUSOM takes pride in offering Indian students not only a robust academic curriculum but also personalized guidance and support throughout their medical education journey.
Dr. Arun Kumar Dubey, Chief Academic Officer of XUSOM, expressed his mission to eliminate uncertainty for aspiring medical professionals by offering a clear, structured, and academically rigorous pathway from India to Aruba to the United States. Mamta Purbey, Director of Admissions & Marketing at XUSOM, added that the program offers a unique and accessible pathway to a global medical career.
Ravi Bhooplapur, President of XUSOM, stated that the partnership with KLE University represents a shared commitment to creating accessible, world-class medical education pathways for talented students in India.
