Curriculum

The Surgery-in-General (SIG) Program is a 2-year common trunk programme for residents pursuing surgical specialty training in Urology.

Prospective residents apply for the surgical specialty programme, and not as general candidates for SIG. They then undergo selection interviews and matching by surgical specialty.

Successful applicants then embark on the SIG training rotations, which equip residents with knowledge in the fundamental principles of surgical practice, basic surgical skills and competencies.
