Bogomolets National Medical University
The Bogomolets National Medical University is 177 years old, established in Kyiv. In 2015, Bogomolets NMU was the first in Ukraine to receive the International Quality Certificate of ISO 9001:2008. Today, Bogomolets NMU stands out among the highly scientific-pedagogical collective and the most significant Medical Schools in Ukraine. It has the 8th position among HM(P)S of Ukraine by UNESCO “Top-200 Ukraine”. There are more than 1200 Teachers and approximately 14,000 students, along with 1500 foreign students, in the University.
However, in spite of the fact that it is MCI recognized, its MCI Passing Ratio is very low. Logically, that makes it a major risk!
