"I am a Professor of Medicine at the University of Rochester in Rochester NY, USA. I have taught medical students and trainees over here continents for over three decades. This gives me a good perspective of how medical education has evolved and adapted to technological advancements and learning methodologies. I had the good fortune of visiting NSHS prior to its inception and meet its faculty as well as tour the excellently appointed basic science departments. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the NSHS curriculum is aligned with the best current teaching methodologies. Its integrated curriculum integrates the basic sciences with clinical case discussions and emphasizes self-directed and small group case-based learning as well as interpersonal and communication skills. Case studies emphasize common medical conditions which illustrate important scientific principles. NSHS curriculum has been integrated horizontally and vertically–-vertically between basic and clinical sciences. The traditionally taught curriculum in Pakistan medical schools has been substituted to permit integration between basic sciences and clinical sciences. NSHS also exists in an unparalleled environment NUST’s multifaceted research institution. This gives it an edge that perhaps no other medical school possesses in Pakistan. The integration of research and teaching in medical education offers numerous benefits, fostering critical thinking and analytical skills in students. Institutions worldwide have recognized the significance of this nexus and have implemented initiatives to link teaching with discipline-based research, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration. NSHS intends to capitalize on this strength and gives its students a research mindset that will serve them well for the rest of their careers. Given all these strengths, my own son decided to enroll in NSHS and we could not have been more satisfied with his experience."
