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.

Famous quotes containing the words medical and/or program:
“As we speak of poetical beauty, so ought we to speak of mathematical beauty and medical beauty. But we do not do so; and that reason is that we know well what is the object of mathematics, and that it consists in proofs, and what is the object of medicine, and that it consists in healing. But we do not know in what grace consists, which is the object of poetry.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“The Kid had a lurking devil in him ... It was a good-humored, jovial imp, or a cruel and blood-thirsty fiend, as circumstances prompted. He always laughed when killing, but fire seemed to dart from his eyes.”
—State of New Mexico, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
