Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister Lee Ju-ho asked university presidents who run medical schools to prevent medical students from returning to school in 2025.
Deputy Prime Minister Lee held a video conference with the presidents of 40 medical schools and asked them to set up regulations to limit consecutive leave of absence for more than two semesters unless there is a special reason.
In addition, we fully informed in advance that medical students who do not return to 2025 can be paid or expelled according to the school regulations, and ordered that each university set the maximum number of students who can be educated beyond the quota and reflected in the school regulations.
In addition, the "flexible operation of medical school curriculum" announced on the 6th emphasized once again that the length of medical school classes can be shortened to five years without deteriorating the quality of education for desired universities, not the uniform transition.
