KEMU/RCP collaboration opportunity
SWOT Analysis
STRENGTH WEAKNESS
KEMU/RCP have collaborated in past.
Two century old institutions
Same protocols being practiced
Faculty at KEMU is UK trained
Enormous patient variety is at hand
English is common mean of
communication
Resurrection of Bonds
There has been a gap between quality
of care being provided due to financial
and other constraints , Pakistan being
a developing country.
Prevailing situation foreigners have
reservations to travel
OPPORTUNITY THREATS
Equal opportunity for all
Exploring new horizons
Brilliant physicians have access to
modern research facilities
New research activity can be carried
out
RCP-KEMU cooperation will enhance
Flourish the UK degrees in Pakistan
Due to difficulty in getting visa it would
be very easy to appear in or near their
hometowns
Brain drain from the country if the
candidates decide to avail better
opportunities.
