From May 29th to June 1st, University held its first peer-to-peer, hands-on workshop designed for medical students who are interested in going to the United States for their medical residencies and eventually work as physicians in that country.

Access to medical specializations in the US (residencies and fellowships) is in fact regulated by the challenging US Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).
University’s degree allows to apply for the USMLE since the University is listed in the IMED (International Medical Education Directory). Futhermore, University prepares its students for the USMLE, by providing a curriculum in line with the requested educational standards and collaborating with the US National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME®).
