Founded
The University of Nicosia, founded in 1980 and based in Nicosia, Cyprus, is the country’s largest private university and the first to introduce a graduate-entry medical program in collaboration with St George's, University of London. The medical school and health sciences offerings attract a diverse international student body and emphasize clinical training, research and evidence-based practice. Cyprus’s reputation for safety and quality of life adds to the appeal for students from around the world.
The university prioritizes health research in areas such as brain health, cancer biology, regenerative medicine and infectious diseases, and supports student involvement in research activities. With modern facilities, simulation labs and partnerships with teaching hospitals, students gain hands-on clinical experience alongside theoretical study. Smaller class sizes and individualized mentoring help students progress rapidly and build professional networks locally and internationally.
Beyond medicine, the University of Nicosia offers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programs and a multicultural campus environment. International students can access academic advising, career services and extracurricular activities that foster personal and professional development. For students seeking an English-language medical education in Europe with strong research opportunities and a supportive campus community, the University of Nicosia is a compelling option.
