This is all thanks to the universities’ exchange relationships and cooperation both at the level of educational staff and scientific research. The exchange of experience completely benefits the student as if he was traveling to study abroad.

Agreements with educational institutions from all over the world have been concluded to establish branches that provide medical students with equal opportunities with the same level of competence and quality of education without the need to travel abroad.

Continuing Medical Education

The profession of medicine requires continuous follow-up on the latest developments in this field in order to benefit the patient and society as a whole.

All this aims to improve their medical knowledge and skills in order to keep pace with the latest developments in their field of work. This is a compelling need that serves all healthcare workers and organizations around the world.
