Doctor of Medicine Degree (MD) - UNIC Athens

The UNIC Athens Medical School offers the University of Nicosia six-Year Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree program designed for high school leavers.

Students are matched with a personal tutor, and meet one-on-one with Career Advisers to track their studies and steps for practice after graduation. The MD program has been designed to meet, and exceed, the requirements of the EU Directive on the recognition of professional qualifications (2005/36/EC) so as to enable nationals of EU, EEA / EFTA member states and Switzerland to have their award recognised when applying to practise in those countries, following graduation, provided they meet other requirements, e.g. language.

Each member state has its own regulations as to which stage of its training program students will enter, and any additional requirements that they will need to demonstrate (such as language proficiency). While the MD degree is recognised by many different countries internationally, applicants are advised to check with their own individual national authorities, if they wish to practice in their own country. Throughout their journey, students will find support and guidance based on their preferred postgraduate pathway. The Student Success Team hosts alumni and career experts to advise in best practice for working in different regions of the world to support student goals.

This accredited medical degree enables pathways to medical practice, with support and preparation for postgraduate placement. Our graduates have been offered positions at over 350 medical centres around the world for residency training, fellowships, internships, and research.
