Introduction
After we entered in the 21st century, when more and more advanced diagnostic and therapeutic instruments and drugs are applied in clinic, we realize that we are still facing many unresolved problems in healthcare: malignant tumors, cardio-cerebral vascular diseases, neurologic diseases, disorders in immune system, etc., while some sporadic new infectious diseases, such as SARS, avian flu, drug-resistant TB, have disturbed our nerves which we might regard these diseases as being eliminated. Currently, in many places in the world, the medical expense has become a huge burden of the society and has influenced many families. People want to know: what is the solution of these dilemmas?
Historically, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has played an important role in benefiting people閳ユ獨 health. Some of its basic theories were formed 2000 years ago. After the countless efforts by TCM clinicians in history, TCM has continuously made development on the understanding and treatment approaches to the diseases. Up till now, TCM acts as one of the pillars in the healthcare system of Chinese society and spreads out broadly to the most of countries and regions in the world. The theory of TCM is a plain and dialectical philosophy, which provides a unique perspective, different from that of western medicine, to understand the relationship between the health and illness. On the other hand, the therapy of TCM is a practical and effective concept which most of the people can accept. Take the acupuncture as an example, it has been recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) for being used to treat more than 50 kinds of diseases. In the study of new drug invention, the experiences from Chinese herbs have ignited the research inspiration of the pharmacists. One of the convincing examples is the discovery of a therapeutic drug to the malaria. Chinese pharmacists was inspired by the clinical application of Qing Hao (Artemisia apiacea) to treat malaria from the ancient records of Chinese Materia Medica and finally discovered Artemisinin which became one of the milestones of malaria treatment.
We hold the belief that the TCM theory and therapies should contribute to the medical service in the world and benefit more people. It is one of the reasons why we establish this program. We appreciate the students who are interested in studying TCM and intend us to teach and train them to become the professionals in TCM (including Acupuncture). For the convenience of the learning and understanding TCM academic knowledge for the foreign students, we choose English as the language used in classroom for this program. In terms of the pedagogy, our instructors are encouraged to apply more interact styles, such as discussion, case study, individual or group presentation, opportunities to meet patients and relatives, care providers, academic associations, etc. The reason for such arrangement comes from the concerns about the students閳?competence of TCM service in the international healthcare market and professional development. We are confident that the comprehensive TCM academy and clinical facilities will be the fundamental supports for achieving the goal of this program.
