“The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient, while nature cures the disease.”- Voltaire
As the main part of the vision of the Faculty of Medicine Rijeka, internationalisation is one of the most powerful ways to create a world without boundaries, a world where medicine has no frontiers.
With its scientific, professional and overall intellectual capacity, based on tradition and continuous development, the Faculty of Medicine Rijeka is an important factor in the biomedical map of Southeast Europe. We widely open new doors of cooperation and partnership with the international academic community, encouraging the input and output of scientific and educational mobility and rapid flow of information and ideas.
“Our mission is to educate, inspire and encourage future medical doctors to create a better and healthier world, focused on humanity and altruism. Internationalisation is a bridge that connects people to the world of science and education. ”
