Welcome by the Dean

Greetings to all our students, faculty, and international visitors. At the University of Nicosia Medical School, we are dedicated to developing the future leaders of medicine through a harmonious blend of education, research, and community outreach.

At the heart of our offerings are our innovative medical programmes: the Undergraduate Entry – Doctor of Medicine (MD), crafted for high school leavers, and the Graduate Entry – Doctor of Medicine (MD), designed for those holding a university degree in any field.

In addition to these, we offer postgraduate degrees that cater to a wide range of professional and academic interests. The Master of Public Health (MPH) is a fully online course ideal for both new graduates and working professionals aiming to make significant contributions to global health. Our Master in Family Medicine (MSc FM), delivered entirely online, is crafted specifically for practising doctors seeking to deepen their expertise and leadership in primary care. Lastly, the Doctorate in Medical Sciences (PhD) invites passionate researchers to advance knowledge across all disciplines of medicine.

Our ethos strongly aligns with the One Health approach, recognising the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. Our diverse research efforts extend across biomedical sciences, clinical studies, public health, and the broader social impacts on health and wellness. We aim to generate solutions to the world’s pressing health issues, fostering innovation and progress in healthcare.

The international nature of our School, with over 1,000 students from 90+ countries, is a testament to our commitment to diversity and international partnerships. This global perspective enhances our educational and research initiatives, providing a rich, transformative experience for all members of our community.

We invite you to explore our programmes and initiatives, and join us in making meaningful contributions to the fields of health and medicine. Together, we strive to advance knowledge and foster innovation, guided by our unwavering commitment to excellence.
