Wroclaw Medical University

A few decades of tradition obliges. The Wroclaw Medical University rose from the ashes of a city brought down by the tragedy of World War II. But the foundation of our university did not consist of stone, but of people – outstanding scientists, mostly from Lviv, but also of German and Jewish descent. 

Wroclaw Medical University is one of the best medical universities in Poland. For many years it has been very popular with the candidates for studies. Currently, We are educating nearly 6000 students in 10 fields: Medicine, Medicine and Dentistry, Pharmacy, Medical Analysis, Dietetics, Emergency Medicine, Physiotherapy, Nursing, Obstetrics and Public Health. We also conduct interdisciplinary Chemistry and Forensic Toxicology studies in cooperation with the University of Wroclaw. Besides studying in Polish, we also offer English studies in the Medical and Dentistry faculties. Thanks to the English Division, many foreign students study medicine in Wroclaw.
