Academic advising in DMCG

Students are followed up academically throughout their medical journey in Dubai Medical College for Girls. Each student is assigned an academic advisor that guides her, answers queries, and provides valuable insights and input from their own medical education and clinical experience for our future doctors. Students and advisors are collaborative partners working to achieve the goals and aspirations students set for themselves.  Advisors also refer students to different services on campus as needed. Academic advising takes place throughout the years in group and individual settings, advisors report issues students raise and are channeled and actioned accordingly.

At DMCG, we believe in the importance of addressing our students needs holistically, therefore, a referral system is built to respond to students’ mental health needs where students’ personal, social, and emotional challenges are supported by mental health counselling services on campus. All students’ personal challenges are supported through the counselling independent confidential entity.
