Bachelor, Undergraduate
MD (Doctor of Medicine) – PUG
Course Overview
Situated in Armenia’s historic second-largest city, the Faculty of Medicine at Progress University of Gyumri (established in 1990) offers a student-friendly, community-integrated 6-year English-medium MD program. The university’s curriculum balances comprehensive classroom training in general medicine, pathology, and surgery with early practical immersion at the Gyumri Medical Center and surrounding regional healthcare clinics.
Benefiting from a low student-to-faculty ratio and an affordable cost of living in Gyumri, students receive individualized clinical mentoring and practical exposure. Accredited by WHO, FAIMER, and the NMC, Progress University prepares competent, culturally adaptable medical professionals ready for global licensing and practice.
