Abstract

Objective To investigate the current status of interdisciplinary medical postgraduate training, and medical graduate students and tutors' knowledge about and attitude to interdisciplinary-based medical postgraduate training. Methods Using convenient sampling method, an online questionnaire survey was conducted among 430 graduate students and 97 tutors from Peking University Health Science Center to investigate their experience of cooperation with other disciplines, as well as their views on the interdisciplinary-based postgraduate training and suggestions on the improvement of the training model. Results The results showed that 47.0% (202/430) of graduate students and 84.5% (82/97) of tutors reported having the cooperation experience with other disciplines. 98.8% (425/430) of graduate students and 99.0% (96/97) of tutors recognized the benefits of interdisciplinary to medical postgraduate training, including broadening students' knowledge and perspective, sharing resources, improving research methods, and the discovery of scientific problems. The proportion of having a corresponding experience showed that 53.9% (284/527) was much higher than that of expecting interdisciplinary cooperation [98.9% (521/527)] among participants. The first three factors restricting the training reported by the graduate students and tutors were lack of platforms for cooperation and exchange 65.6% (282/430), 71.1% (69/97), imperfect training system 63.3% (272/430), 71.1% (69/97) and insufficient awareness of interdisciplinary-based training 55.8% (240/430), 52.6% (51/97). Conclusions The benefits of interdisciplinary in medical postgraduate training has been widely recognized by students and tutors. However, improving systems and platforms for multi-disciplinary cooperation, and strengthening the interdisciplinary education concept are still needed to promote interdisciplinary integration and medical innovative talents training.

医学研究生与导师对医学研究生跨学科培养知识与态度的调查

目的了解医学研究生跨学科培养的现状，以及医学研究生和导师对医学研究生跨学科培养的认识和态度。方法采用方便抽样法，对北京大学医学部430名研究生和97名导师进行在线问卷调查，了解他们与其他学科合作的经验、对研究生跨学科培养的看法和培养模式的改进建议。结果47.0%(202/430)的研究生和84.5%(82/97)的导师报告有与其他学科合作的经历。98.8%(425/430)的研究生和99.0%(96/97)的导师认识到跨学科对医学研究生培养的好处，包括拓宽学生的知识和视角、共享资源、改进研究方法和发现科学问题。有相应经验的比例为53.9%(284/527)，远高于期望跨学科合作的比例[98.9%(521/527)]。制约研究生和导师培养的前3个因素分别为:缺乏合作交流平台(65.6%)(262 /430)、71.1%(69/97)、培养体系不完善(63.3%)、71.1%(69/97)和对跨学科培养认识不足(55.8%)(240/430)、52.6%(51/97)。结论跨学科在医学研究生培养中的益处已得到学生和导师的广泛认可。但要促进跨学科融合和医学创新人才的培养，还需要完善多学科合作的制度和平台，强化跨学科的教育理念。关键词:跨学科;医学研究生培养;调查
