Computer System Requirements
Students seeking an MD degree at Destiny University School of Medicine must have a minimum of computer skills(click here)
Students are required to have a laptop computer and a quality head set with microphone. We highly recommend a core duo processor 1.8 ghz or better 2 gb of ram. Real time video and audio communication(used frequently for lectures and Class discussions), will demand processing power as well as a sound ram configuation.

The use of (multi)media rich content is paramount.
We provide the major multimedia forms:
- Text documents(pdf, doc)
