Since the implementation of the degree regulations in 1981, China has achieved great results in medical degree and graduate education. Basically, it has established a complete range of disciplines, a degree authorization system and a graduate training base that can guarantee the quality of degree awards, and has trained a large number of medical masters and doctors . At the same time, there are also some problems, mainly: different degrees in basic medicine, clinical medicine, public health and preventive medicine, stomatology, pharmacy, etc. are awarded medical degrees, their names are inconsistent; the types of medical degrees are relatively single, and there is no medical degree.

In order to better adapt to the needs of society, it is conducive to the targeted training of professionals of various natures and different professional backgrounds, it is beneficial to the selection and use of various types of professionals by society, and it is conducive to international peer-to-peer exchanges. It is necessary to adjust the types of degrees conferred by the medical disciplines and set a medical degree.

1. Medical degrees are divided into three levels: bachelor, master and doctor. There are no professional degrees for bachelor's degrees, and bachelor's degrees in medicine are still awarded in accordance with the current method. Master's and doctoral degrees are divided into two types according to the different requirements of different disciplines and different professional backgrounds on talents: one is a "medical science degree" and the other is a "medical professional degree".

Second, medical science degrees, the requirements of which focus on academic theoretical level and experimental research capabilities, with the goal of training researchers engaged in basic theory or applied basic theory, the disciplines involved are: basic medicine and clinical medicine, preventive medicine, oral medicine and Subjects of theoretical and experimental research related to pharmacy, etc., belong to this category, and those who pass the qualifications are awarded medical science degrees.

3. A medical degree, which requires the ability to focus on the actual work of a specific occupation, and aims to train senior clinicians, stomatologists, health and epidemic prevention, and the application and development of new drug research and development as the goal. Qualified candidates are awarded medical professional degrees, which are divided into "clinical medical professional degrees", "prophylactic medical professional degrees", "pharmaceutical professional degrees", and "stomatological professional degrees" according to different disciplines and their professional background characteristics.

4. Based on the principle of "unifying understanding, rationalizing ideas, classifying guidance, first easy, then difficult, step-by-step implementation, and ensuring quality", first carry out trials in clinical medical professional degrees, and carry out in accordance with "Trial Measures for Clinical Medical Professional Degrees". Professional degrees in other disciplines will be gradually piloted as conditions mature.

The format of the degree certificate for clinical medicine is uniformly formulated by the Office of the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council, and the certificate of the degree recipient is issued by the degree-granting unit that approved the pilot.

5. Subjects that have not yet set up and piloted a degree in medical science will still be awarded degrees in accordance with the original method. ^[1]
