It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of prof. Geoffrey Shaw on March 22, 2022.
An exceptionally difficult geopolitical situation that has not left our community indifferent also influenced the proceedings of the University's Senate on March 23rd, 2022.
The University Senate has approved changes to school regulations to allow medical and dental students from Ukrainian universities to transfer to PUMS. Applications open on March 25 in rolling admissions mode.
Poznan University of Medical Sciences organizes a free-of-charge medical Polish course. The classes are for people from Ukraine who want to work in hospitals as: doctors, nurses, midwives.
We would like to invite all students interested in pursuing their medical career in the U.S. to a residency workshop with dr. Adrian D. Car.
In the wake of tragic events in Ukraine we have initiated a fast-track psychological support for Ukrainian students of PUMS.
Dear All,
Dear Students and Citizens of Ukraine,
The unprecedented attack of the Russian military on Ukraine has tore down the world order. War always brings death and destruction. It is unjustifiable evil.
This is why we express our solidarity with the whole Ukrainian Nation.
Our University co-operates with six institutions in Ukraine:
- Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University,
- National University of Pharmacy, Kharkiv,
- Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine,
- Ternopil State Medical University,
- Kharkiv National Medical University,
- Lviv State University of Internal Affairs,
All of which are important centers of education and research in medical and pharmaceutical sciences. We stand together with our Partners and we are offering our help.
We also assure all Ukrainian students enrolled at PUMS of our support. You are not alone in this difficult time - all of the University departments and services stand ready to assist you.
Long live free Ukraine!
Signed in the name of the whole Academic Community of Poznan University of Medical Sciences,
Prof. Andrzej Tykarski, MD, PhD
Rector
The Polish Minister of Health has introduced a CoViD-19 vaccination mandate for all students enrolled in study programs preparing for the professions of a doctor, dentist, pharmacist, nurse, midwife, laboratory diagnostician, physiotherapist and paramedic starting from March 1st, 2022. The University regulations detailing this obligation will follow shortly. In the meantime, we urge all non-vaccinated students to schedule their vaccination appointments as soon as possible.
On January 24, PUMS had the pleasure to host the Minister for Health, dr. Adam Niedzielski. The visit was an occasion to present the ministry’s plans to develop the medical personnel, including promotion of medical studies among young people, and changes in the course of studies, among others.
The US National Committee on Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation (NCFMEA) has positively reviewed Polish standards that Ministry of Health and Polish Accreditation Committee use to accredit medical schools.
