In April 1991, the Malawi College of Medicine opened its doors to Malawi medical students who had undertaken all but the final year of their undergraduate training in the United Kingdom. The first batch qualified with the MB BS degrees of the University of Malawi in September 1992. Since then and up to July 1998, 112 doctors have been produced. They are all Malawians, 90 males and 22 females, 29%, 31% and 40% respectively come from the Northern, Central and Southern regions of Malawi. Seventy-one per cent of the graduates had passed through Chancellor College, Zomba, and 27% had attended the Kamuzu Academy, Kasunga, Malawi. So far, most of these graduates have remained in Malawi, working in various locations in government and mission hospitals and at the University of Malawi. Many have shown encouraging interest in pursuing postgraduate education. In September 1994 the epoch of hybridisation was brought to a close with the admission of the first set of students who will train fully here in Malawi and become our first batch of home-grown doctors.
1991年4月,马拉维医学院向那些在英国完成了本科培训除最后一年之外所有课程的马拉维医科学生敞开了大门。首批学生于1992年9月获得了马拉维大学的医学学士和外科学士学位。从那时起到1998年7月,共培养出了112名医生。他们都是马拉维人,其中男性90名,女性22名,分别有29%、31%和40%来自马拉维的北部、中部和南部地区。71%的毕业生毕业于松巴的 Chancellor 学院,27%曾就读于马拉维卡松加的卡穆祖学院。到目前为止,这些毕业生中的大多数都留在了马拉维,在政府医院、教会医院以及马拉维大学的各个岗位工作。许多人对攻读研究生教育表现出了令人鼓舞的兴趣。1994年9月,随着第一批将在马拉维接受全程培训并成为我们首批本土培养医生的学生入学,杂交培养的时代宣告结束。
