Statute overview

About this statute

Medical doctors who complete a bachelor’s degree in general medicine must do one year of intensive internship training before they may practice medicine in Rwanda. Some foreign-trained doctors may be exempted from medical internship if they prove prior internship training, and foreign participants in the internship programme must pay their own expenses. The Committee oversees and regulates the medical internship programme, and its composition is set out in the article. The main Committee must manage internship placement, duration, evaluation criteria, candidate allocation to hospitals, and confirmation of doctors who complete the internship. The Committee Coordinator must handle internship rotation planning, carry out Committee directives, maintain performance records, and—when the Committee asks—prepare lists of completed interns and their completion certificates.
