Abstract

Objective To explore the problems existing in the postgraduate education of preventive medicine and the corresponding solutions.Methods Qualitative method was adopted; professional teachers and administrators of preventive medicine of colleges and universities in Wuhan, relevant persons in charge and managers from the employers, and graduates of 2011~2013 of preventive medicine were selected as the research subjects. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were used among the research subjects. Then based on the interview outline, QSR Nvivo 10.0 software was used to code the interview material. These tree nodes were modified and merged again and again before they finally became the mature ones.Results The main problems existing in the postgraduate education of preventive medicine were as follows: unreasonable teaching methods and contents; lack of sense of identity among students, formalized practice; inappropriate assessment of students; the neglect of teaching because of the excessive importance attached to scientific research.Conclusions Teaching methods and contents should be improved. Colleges should guide students to form clear self-localization. Besides, in order to successfully manage the practice of preventive medicine, more importance should be attached to it by universities and teaching bases. What's more, the indicators and models of assessment of students should also be improved. Lastly, enough emphasis should be placed on undergraduate teaching which can also be improved by scientific research.
