The Peninsula Qatar reports that Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar (WCM-Q) has organized the Medical Minds Online Programme (MMOP), a summer initiative aimed at high school students from Qatar and abroad who aspire to pursue careers in medicine. In its second edition, the week-long virtual event brought together 84 students from 50 local, regional, and international high schools.
The program, offered by WCM-Q's Office of Student Outreach and Educational Development, provides a comprehensive overview of the opportunities and challenges in the medical field through interactive sessions conducted by WCM-Q faculty and staff. Participants, who are entering grades 10, 11, and 12 in the 2026-2027 academic year, engaged in live online sessions and self-paced modules covering various medical topics, research skills, professional identity building, and the WCM-Q application and admissions process.
The program aims to familiarize pre-college students with the field of medicine and science, providing a glimpse of the profession and campus life through the WCM-Q student learning experience.
