Most medical schools have established a medical education unit (MEU) or similar bodies in response to various reforms
in medical education. Such units have a variety of titles and operate either independently or under the office of the dean. Their activi ties include conducting educational research, teaching and providing service and career development of academic staff. The scope of
their activities ranges from serving medical faculty only to all other health professionals at either the undergraduate or postgraduate
levels. Several factors contribute to the success of MEUs and their establishment is seen to have a positive effect on their medical
school.
