Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) is a five-year programme to equip students with knowledge in the basic medical sciences for first 2 years and 3 years exposure to clinical medicine. The home-grown medical programme at Taylor's is an integrated problem-based curriculum with departmental clinical rotations in the clinical years.

During Phase I of the programme (Year 1 and 2), the curriculum covers basic medical sciences with introductory clinical exposure. Foundations in communication skills, medical ethics and community health will be spread across the phase. Students will also be introduced to medical research. Students will also be given the opportunity to select certain topics in the Student Selected Module (SSM) to allow them to explore subjects of their interest in more depth. In Phase II (Year 3, 4 and 5), students will go into different clinical rotations medicine, surgery, paediatrics, O&G, orthopaedics and others.
