  • Removes the specification of particular core courses that IMG participants could receive instruction in, allowing more flexible curriculum offerings.

  • Authorizes foreign medical graduates to practice medicine as part of the UCLA program, limited to no more than 24 weeks of clinical instruction under specified supervision and facility requirements.
