American University of the Caribbean, Sint Maarten Campuses

The American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (AUC) in Sint Maarten is dedicated to providing a high-quality medical education with a focus on preparing students for successful careers in healthcare. Located in Cupecoy, this campus offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to meet the needs of aspiring physicians. The primary program offered is the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree, which is structured to provide students with a strong foundation in medical sciences and clinical skills.

• Doctor of Medicine (MD): The MD program is the cornerstone of AUC’s offerings, spanning several years of intensive study. The first part of the program focuses on medical sciences, covering subjects such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, and pharmacology. Students engage in problem-based learning and small group discussions to build critical thinking and collaborative skills.
• Clinical Rotations: Following the medical sciences curriculum, students transition to clinical rotations, which are conducted at affiliated hospitals and clinical sites, primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom. This hands-on training allows students to apply their knowledge in real-world medical settings across various specialties, including internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, and psychiatry.
• Preparatory Courses: AUC also offers preparatory courses and support for students to excel in licensing exams such as the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination). These resources are designed to ensure graduates are well-prepared to enter residency programs and practice medicine globally.

The campus environment fosters a diverse and inclusive community, with students from around the world. AUC’s commitment to excellence in medical education, combined with its strategic location in Sint Maarten, provides a unique and enriching learning experience for all students.
