Abstract: The ability of medical communication and health education is an important aspect to reflect the competency of military doctors. However, so far, in the aspect of medical communication personnel training, the military universities have not set up relevant courses and lack a special training system. In 2022, based on the implementation of medical science popularization practice in previous years, the National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center for Basic Medicine at the Air Force Military Medical University opened an elective course in military medical communication. Based on the educational needs of the military, the course implemented teaching concepts such as military characteristics, seminar classrooms, and result oriented approaches. It integrated multiple disciplines such as medicine, communication, art, and psychology, condenses the theory of health science popularization and education, and leverages the intelligent teaching conditions of the center. The results of the post class questionnaire survey showed that all 43 participants in the course believed that the course was helpful in improving their science popularization and communication skills. The implementation of the course had made beneficial explorations in cultivating the medical communication and health education abilities of military medical college students.
