The role of medical,hygienic and social science in medical education: an integral approach
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Medical education is an interdisciplinary domain that integrates medical, hygienic, and social sciences to provide a approach to healthcare. The discipline’s role extends beyond clinical knowledge, encompassing preventive medicine, public health, and the sociocultural determinants of health. Medical sciences form the foundation for diagnosing and treating diseases, while hygienic sciences focus on disease prevention, health promotion, and environmental health. Social sciences, including medical sociology, psychology, and ethics, contribute to understanding patient behavior, healthcare systems, and policy-making. This integrative approach ensures that future healthcare professionals develop not only technical expertise but also an awareness of public health challenges and societal factors affecting well-being. By incorporating these disciplines, medical education fosters a well-rounded, patient-centered, and community-oriented healthcare system. This article explores the interconnections between these disciplines, their significance in medical curricula, and their impact on shaping competent and socially responsible healthcare professionals.
