St Christopher Iba Mar Diop College of Medicine (SCIMD-COM) represents a new model of medical education. Located in Luton, England (30 miles north of London), the college is a branch campus of the Universite El Hadji Ibrahim Niasse (UEIN) in Dakar, Senegal. Two medical colleges exist under the umbrella of parent university UEIN: Ecole de Médecine St Christopher Iba Mar Diop (EM-SCIMD) in Dakar and SCIMD-COM in Luton. SCIMD-COM offers two curricula: a four-year curriculum for students who have previously earned a baccalaureate degree and a six-year curriculum for other students. Instruction for both programs is conducted in English. EM-SCIMD offers a five-year curriculum that is conducted in French. All programs award the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree through the authority of UEIN, allowing graduates to apply for licensure to practice medicine in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Senegal, and many other countries.
Truly an international entity, more than 25 nations are represented in SCIMD-COM's student body. After completing five semesters of the Basic Medical Sciences (and all applicable premedical coursework) on campus in Luton, students enter the Clinical Sciences and complete a series of clinical clerkships at National Health Service (NHS) hospitals and clinics in the UK or at Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)teaching hospitals in the US. The US/Canadian administrative offices are located in New York City, NY and the UK/European Union administrative offices are located in Luton, England.
