Determining Expected Research Skills of Medical Students on Graduation: a Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Global interest in research skills in undergraduate medical education is growing. There is no consensus regarding expected research skills of medical students on graduation. We conducted a systematic review to determine the aims and intended learning outcomes (ILOs) of mandatory research components of undergraduate medical curricula incorporating the teaching, assessment, and evaluation methods of these programs.

Methods

Using the PRISMA protocol, MEDLINE and ERIC databases were searched with keywords related to "medical student research programs" for relevant articles published up until February 2020. Thematic analysis was conducted according to student experience/reactions, mentoring/career development, and knowledge/skill development.
