Message from the Dean

Dear Prospective Students, The Faculty’s mission is to train a generation of highly skilled and versatile medical laboratory workers and scientists for work throughout the health sector, including academia, government laboratories and high-technology industries. Our mission is not only to provide our students with the best medical laboratory education possible, but also help them contribute to medical laboratory science by teaching them research methodology and encouraging them to find out what areas of medicine they have a passion for. The college has taken it upon itself to have a strong beginning on the right basis by applying the latest scientific knowledge in the field of medical education and scientific research. In order to achieve this, it has appointed a number of highly qualified professors from inside and outside the country and in all medical specialties. We have sufficient laboratories for clinical and training and they are open for our students to use for their own projects or with professors who guide them. We welcome students who thrive in challenging conditions and who have a passion for science and for medicine and hope that you will join us.
