Is Online Study Offered?

Due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, Kyiv Medical University is currently offering online studies to accommodate students who opt for this mode of learning. Additionally, for those who prefer or are able to attend in person, the university provides on-site education at its campus in Poland. These arrangements are in line with temporary provisions set by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine in response to the current situation.

Is Graduate Entry Offered?

In Ukraine, graduate entry is not permitted as local medical universities refuse to acknowledge non-Ukrainian Bachelor’s degrees because of contrasts between the study programmes of the medicine courses and the non-Ukrainian BSc degrees. So, Ukrainian medical transcripts cannot include subjects that have been studied in a BSc degree.
