Medical Program
The medical program in WCMC-Q follows the same structure of education as the Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University in New York City, composed of four years of education, with the first and second years being primarily academic, and the third and fourth years being mainly in the hospital. The primary teaching hospitals for WCMC-Q students are Hamad Medical Corporation, and Sidra Medical and Research Center, a massive hospital under construction to be focused primarily upon obstetrics and pediatrics. All teaching faculty are brought from the main campus of the Medical College to maintain a consistent education standard, and the degree awarded is the same degree of the campus in New York.

that explained my brain will never be as true as these
struck leaves letting go.”
