برنامج الطب والجراحة

يُعد برنامج بكالوريوس الطب والجراحة من الركائز الأساسية التي قامت عليها جامعة العلوم والتكنولوجيا منذ تأسيسها عام 1994م، وذلك بموجب قرار وزارة التعليم العالي والبحث العلمي رقم (2/94). في بداياته، كان البرنامج يُقدم ضمن كلية العلوم الطبية التي كانت تضم أيضاً برنامجي طب الأسنان والصيدلة. وفي عام 2011م، صدر قرار جامعي بفصل هذه البرامج إلى كليات مستقلة، لتنشأ “كلية الطب والعلوم الصحية” التي احتضنت البرنامج منذ ذلك الحين.
خضع البرنامج لعمليات تطوير دورية ومنتظمة؛ بدأت المرحلة التطويرية الأولى في عام 2007م (بواقع 300 ساعة معتمدة)، تلتها المرحلة الثانية في عام 2014م (بواقع 281 ساعة). أما المرحلة الثالثة فقد أُنجزت في عام 2023م لتصبح الساعات المعتمدة 259 ساعة، وقد تم هذا التحديث بما يتوافق مع معايير الاعتماد الأكاديمي الوطنية والدولية.
تعتبر تجربة جامعة العلوم والتكنولوجيا في اليمن، وتحديداً في برنامج الطب والجراحة، علامة فارقة في تاريخ التعليم العالي الطبي في منطقة جنوب شبه الجزيرة العربية والشرق الأوسط. إن دراسة هذا البرنامج تتطلب غوصاً عميقاً في التحولات الأكاديمية والمؤسسية التي شهدتها اليمن منذ منتصف التسعينات، حيث برزت الحاجة الماسة إلى كسر احتكار التعليم الحكومي وتأسيس نماذج تعليمية خاصة قادرة على مواكبة التسارع العالمي في العلوم الطبية. يحلل هذا التقارير، بمنهجية أكاديمية رصينة، المسارات التاريخية، والفلسفات التعليمية، ومنظومة الإنجازات التي جعلت من هذا البرنامج رقماً صعباً في معادلة التأهيل الطبي الإقليمي والدولي

Dr. Abdullah Almikhlafy | Blood transfusion is one of the most essential needs to manage patients suffering from various medical conditions. Nowadays, voluntary blood donors are the only source of blood in the blood banks. There is a great need to create awareness among the population at large and students about blood donation to maintain a regular blood supply. University students can be used as best model to lead this initiative. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice regarding blood donation among undergraduate UST students. | Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of Blood Donation Among Male Students of University of Science and Technology, Sana’a, Yemen, 2026 | 1. |
