Rome is situated along the shores of Tiber. What makes this city one of the most special is the fact that within its boundaries, there is Vatican City - the smallest country in the world. Rome is not only visited for its beauty and remarkable attributes. Many students who decided to study medicine in Italy are led here because of the several universities located around the city.
Nowadays, Campus Bio-Medico University offers only a 6-year medical course entirely taught in English. The curriculum consists of pre-clinical and clinical years. The purpose of the pre-clinical years is to educate you on the basic knowledge of medicine.
When it comes to the clinical years, there’s not much theory involved. Most of the subjects are devoted to acquiring practical skills. For this purpose, you will be granted access to the teaching hospital, simulators, and every kind of training that can help you grow your medical mind.
At this moment, the school offers a foundation year only in the Italian language.
The university doesn’t offer graduate entry, but you can apply for a student transfer if you meet the requirements.
