KHARKIV INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY
The six-year medical studies in English allow students to enrol in the University directly from high secondary school. The program is designed for students who are strongly motivated, have a good command of both written and spoken English and interest in medical science.
Except for the fact that instructions, labs, lectures and examinations are conducted in English, the curriculum of the six-year medical studies in English is completely identical with the coursework pursued by Ukrainian medical students. Learning Ukrainian language is also available during the first two years of the program. Students are offered to learn Ukrainian in order to be able to communicate with the patients and in order to avoid the misunderstanding of the patients from the third year onwards.
The last year of medical studies has exclusively practical purposes. During the last year, students work under the direct guidance of the assistants and instructors with high academic positions in the clinics.
Crucial assessment of knowledge acquired by the students after accomplishing the studies is given by the State Examination KROK (at 3rd and 6th) as comprehensive theoretical state examination.
