Undergraduate Education Unit

UGEU gives medical students the opportunity to learn from medical experts at the National Cancer Centre Singapore through job shadowing and elective postings. Students experience several specialties that include surgical oncology, medical oncology, radiation oncology, oncologic imaging, and supportive and palliative care. Students join oncologists for inpatient ward rounds, outpatient clinics, multi-disciplinary tumor boards and department meetings.

Optional tutorials and lectures provide an overview of common cancers and the principles of oncology. Subject to availability at the time, students may also participate in a research project to gain insight into the process and rigour of scientific investigation.
