About
The Medical University of Warsaw (Polish: Warszawski Uniwersytet Medyczny) is one of the oldest and the largest medical schools in Poland. The first academic department of medicine was established as far back as two centuries ago in 1809. It is considered to be one of the most prestigious and reputable schools nationally for the medical sciences, partly due to its affiliation with a number of large hospitals in Poland.

At the Medical University of Warsaw, general and specialty training are provided at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Students and staff also conduct scientific and clinical research at these hospitals in addition to involvement in a number of clinical academic departments located in other hospitals in the city. WUM currently offers 16 degree programs including 3 ful
