Abstract

Abstract: Objective The study aims to collect information of collaboration needs on medical education from medical universities/colleges in China and ASEAN and provide suggestions for the development of medical education in China and ASEAN countries. Methods A self-constructed questionnaire survey was adopted to collect data on collaboration intentions, expertise and challenges of the 43 member institutions of China-ASEAN University Consortium on Medicine and Health in medical education in May, 2020. Descriptive statistics was applied for data analysis. Results In total, 20 Chinese members and 10 ASEAN members completed the survey. The study found that both Chinese and ASEAN universities/colleges were particularly interested in cooperation in curriculum design (14 for China, 8 for ASEAN), cultivation of scientific research ability (17 for China, 7 for ASEAN) and online courses (17 for China, 7 for ASEAN) for undergraduate medical education; cultivation of graduate scientific research ability (18 for China, 9 for ASEAN), graduate exchange (18 for China, 9 for ASEAN), short courses training/workshop (19 for China, 8 for ASEAN) and online courses (14 for China, 7 for ASEAN) for postgraduate medical education; clinical observation/rotation (15 for China, 9 for ASEAN), and youth conference & workshop (18 for China, 7 for ASEAN) as to the forms of student exchange. Besides, both Chinese and ASEAN universities/colleges had expertise in curriculum design for undergraduate medical education (11 for China, 6 for ASEAN), short courses training/workshop for postgraduate medical education (10 for China, 5 for ASEAN), and clinical observation/rotation (10 for China, 5 for ASEAN) for student exchange. More than half of Chinese and ASEAN members believed that they had no challenges in cooperation on medical education. Conclusions Both Chinese and ASEAN universities/colleges have a strong willingness to conduct international cooperation in many areas of medical education, including online courses and other aspects. However, in certain areas Chinese or ASEAN institutions have a higher willingness to conduct cooperation than their counterpart. They should further explore their advantages and characteristics of both sides in medical education based on mutual interests, deepen cooperation in medical education and finally promote the development of medical education in the region.

Key words: China, ASEAN, Medical education, Student exchange, International cooperation
