Opportunity to undertake a Research MD on Global Surgery Education
RCSI Institute of Global Surgery is offering a 2-year research MD (StAR MD, NFQ Level 10) studying how training institutions worldwide engage with SURGhub — the open-access UN Global Surgery Learning Hub (65,000+ learners since 2023).
The project explores why institutions adopt SURGhub courses, what gets them embedded into formal curricula, and the impact of that — feeding directly into platform strategy.
