Requirements in medical education, curriculum structure, criteria, teaching methodology, and nature of programs vary worldwide.

Electives can contribute to professional and personal development of medical students in specific areas of interest outside of the standard curriculum. Elective courses can be referred to two main types: subject-oriented, which enable students to develop their own cognitive interests in the chosen area, get profound knowledge in the sphere of interest as well as to form skills for important practical tasks; interdisciplinary, the aim of which is to take knowledge and methods of one discipline and apply them in another one to provide more profound learning experience and broader perspectives. On the other hand, electives are thought to be less regulated and monitored than compulsory disciplines, thus having less benefit for students.
