Medical education is an important issue throughout the world, raising even more interest in
the era of globalization. In Brazil, the discussions around medical education increased
dramatically during the construction of the Unified Health System and got even more
intensive after the establishment of the National Curricular Guidelines. However, very little is
known about possible relations and mutual influences between medical education and
scientific research. In the 2007 edition of the National Examination of Student Performance
— ENADE 2007, 30.7% of the students from medical schools had not participated in
Scientific Initiation activities (a program of research activities for undergraduate students)
during their courses, 31% had no opinion, 39% of them had participated in such activities and
12% had done so informally. For 10.9% of the students there were no Scientific Initiation
activities available and 6.5% reported the existence of such activities however on an extra curricular basis. It is noteworthy that in 2003 only 20.9% of the students reported that joining
these research activities was important for their medical education while 30.7% of them
reported not participating in research activities In the present study we investigated the
availability of Scientific Initiation activities in the course of sixth year medical students from
Universidade Federal do Pará in Brazil. Special attention was paid to the reasons for enrolling
or not in the program. Even with an increased participation of students in the program we
identified a great number of reasons why students did not participate although 90% of them
consider that participation in the program should be mandatory for medical students in
general. |
