FACULTY
AISM Faculty are primarily doctors practicing in Guyana, India, Cuba, Canada and the United States of America.
HOUSING:
Housing is an off campus arrangement which will be arranged through student services. However, students and faculty are advised to arrive in Guyana a few days or one week before classes begin to facilitate the selection of an acceptable apartment/house. Early arrival in Guyana would also help students to familiarize themselves with other students who are desirous of sharing apartments and facilities to reduce their cost of stay in Guyana. All apartments and houses are completely furnished. Email your request to housing@aism.edu
ACCREDITATION:
Graduates of AISM, by virtue of listing in the WHO published ‘world directory of medical schools’ are eligible to appear in the licensing examination of all member countries of United Nations. Many of our students have already appeared and passed the licensing Examinations in USA (USMLE) and England (PLAB).
The Government of Guyana in 1999 has granted a charter to AISM and thus confers the right to offer the degree of MD to those who successfully complete the approved curriculum.
Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates has granted permission to the students of AISM to sit for all the qualifying examinations required to obtain license to practice medicine in a given state of USA. http://www.ecfmg.org/
In conformation with the International Protocol, World Health Organization acknowledges the charter granted by the Government of Guyana and AISM in their publication called World Directory of Medical Schools. http://www.who.int
AISM has successfully addressed all requirements of ECFMG and therefore obtained permission for its students to sit for the United States Medical Licensing Examination. Similar permission has also been obtained from England, and Canada and most other commonwealth countries. http://www.usmle.org/
