| Compiled by the World Health Organization, this directory lists medical schools throughout the world that were in full operation during 1970. The schools are listed alphabetically by country, city, and institution, in that order. In addition to the name and address of the school, information is given on the year instruction commenced, conditions of admission, duration of studies, type of degree or diploma awarded, language of instruction, the number of students admitted in 1970, and the number who graduated in that year. To facilitate frequent revision, this volume includes only those schools listed by the governments of the countries in which they are located as recognized institutions of education that confer a medical degree or diploma. A special annex lists the number of medical schools and the population for each country represented in the directory. The directory has been prepared as a bilingual publication in English and French. |
