El gobierno propuso posicionar a Colombia como un destino turístico de salud y bienestar, siendo uno de los objetivos aumentar los niveles de competencia del inglés en los profesionales de la salud. Esto se relaciona con la meta, para 2014, del Ministerio de Educación Nacional (MEN) de que 20% de los graduados deberían clasificar en nivel intermedio o superior en inglés.Objetivos. Analizar el cumplimiento de la meta establecida por el MEN para los graduandos de los programas de medicina.Materiales y métodos. Aproximación descriptiva y estadística (pruebas de proporciones paramétricas y no paramétricas) que empleó datos de la prueba Saber Pro (2011-2015) para los programas de medicina de las instituciones de educación superior de carácter académico universitario.Resultados. El porcentaje global de estudiantes que cumplió la meta (28.6%) fue satisfactorio; sin embargo, solo 18 de 43 (37.2%) programas de medicina la cumplieron.Conclusiones. El nivel de inglés de los potenciales graduados de los programas de medicina está alineado con la meta del gobierno. No obstante, hay mucho por mejorar si se tiene en cuenta que cerca del 70% de los futuros graduados de los programas de medicina no alcanza un nivel intermedio o superior en esta competencia.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Bogotá - Facultad de Medicinahttps://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/revfacmed/article/view/61296Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Revista de la Facultad de MedicinaRevista de la Facultad de MedicinaAlonso, Julio César and Díaz, Diana Margarita and Estrada, Daniela and Mueces, Brigitte Vanesa (2018) English proficiency level in Colombian undergraduate students of medical programs.
