UNIC Stories

What Students and Graduates Say

The knowledge and experiences I acquired as a student at the University definitely shaped me as both an individual and a professional. Due to its geographical position and rich history, Cyprus is a truly unique place, ideal for studying International Relations. Indeed, this has given me a great advantage in my current position, where I get to apply all I have learnt during my studies.

The University of Nicosia stood out as a global pioneer in blockchain education. The Institute For the Future has built a strong reputation for its research, its industry relevance and its early adoption of blockchain technologies. What ultimately convinced me was the comprehensive nature of the programme.

One of the things I like about the Medical School is the Mobile Clinic programme, which transforms theoretical knowledge into practical skills through real patient care.

Karoline Dorthea Bergheim Elnaes Medical School

I am fortunate to have chosen to study in a state-of-the-art Medical School and one of the few in Europe and UK with cadavers as learning resources. This practice is invaluable, and alongside the early clinical exposure and diverse clinical placements that the School offers, will assist me in becoming a competent doctor and a competitive applicant for residency.
