ABSTRACT
1）We had the opportunity to study medical education in Thailand and Singapore while we visited medical schools in those countries as a member of the Japan Tropical Medicine Association.<br>2）In Thailand, undergraduate medical education last for 6 years, which is the same length as in Japan. All lectures are in English. Medical students in Thailand are more deeply related to patients at bedside learning than are students in Japan. In Singapore, undergraduate education lasts for 5 years, and lectures are in English. In the third year, medical students start clinical medicine. Recently, a new program has been adopted in which medical students can easily choose their specialties right after graduation.<br>3）Japanese medical students study medicine in Japanese. In contrast, greater emphasis should be placed in Japan on medical education in English.
