In Egypt, after medical students complete their 6 years of studies they require one year of Internship or Clerkship Training in a University or Teaching Hospital. During this year the student must complete two month rotations in each General Surgery, Internal Medicine, Paediatrics, and Obstetrics/Gynaecology. They also must complete one month rotations of their choice in each a sub-speciality of Surgery, sub-speciality of Internal Medicine, Anesthesiology and ER medicine. Once the student has completed their Internship they are awarded a Bachelors of Medicine and Surgery (Mb BCh). There are also two years of mandatory service in an under-served area. If the Medical graduate fails to complete these two years they are not allowed to work in a University or Teaching Hospital and can only work in a Private Hospital or Clinic.
