2.MD stands for doctor of medicine. He is a medical clinician and a doctor of clinical medicine. Doctor of medicine (M.D.) is one of the professional degrees in China, and it is called doctor in some places.
3. China's postgraduate degree system is divided into traditional research-oriented scientific degrees and technical professional degrees. A degree in science is a doctorate. And it is biased towards scientific exploration, but in fact it is biased towards scientific research. Professional degrees such as doctor of clinical medicine, master of medicine, doctor of stomatology, master of stomatology, master of law, master of accounting, master of business administration (now very popular MBA) and master of engineering are more practical.
4. Take clinical medicine as an example. After graduation, you can apply for professional degrees and scientific degrees. Enjoy full or half prizes for scientific degrees, enjoy state grants, and participate in graduate students' three auxiliary jobs; Professional degree tuition is self-taught, and you don't enjoy the national unified bursary. In principle, you can't participate in the three supplementary tuition fees provided by the school. As far as the training period is concerned, a professional degree is generally shorter than a scientific degree.
5. In the training plan, the degree of medical specialty is biased towards scientific research without clinical work, and the clinical time is relatively short, but the requirements for graduation thesis are relatively high. Medical professional degree focuses more on the cultivation of clinical skills, and the cultivation requirements of clinical research are lower than that of scientific research. Therefore, there is no strict scientific degree in graduation thesis. Therefore, in medical colleges, the degree of science is called scientific research, and the degree of specialty is called clinical.
6. When applying for graduate students, the clinical requirements are more stringent: you must have a full-time undergraduate degree in clinical medicine in domestic universities, and you must have a medical practitioner's license to qualify for the exam. Science degree qualification is a general postgraduate qualification. When choosing a major, the specific subject is a scientific degree, and "Clinical Medical Skills Training and Research" is selected as a professional degree.
