Recently, the preparatory department for foreign citizens welcomed a group of future doctors from Ecuador. These young people, full of enthusiasm and a strong desire for knowledge, decided to pursue their medical education in Ukraine, choosing one of the country’s most promising educational institutions—Zaporizhzhia State Medical and Pharmaceutical University . They will study at the ZSMPhU campus in Berehove, located in the Zakarpattia region.

 

Ahead of them lies an exciting and eventful life. The first stage of their education will involve intensive Ukrainian language training. This is essential for their future success in their studies and adaptation to the new environment. In addition to language preparation, students will be introduced to Ukrainian cultural traditions, history, and the peculiarities of daily life.

 

The Department of Language and General Theoretical Training plays an active role in this process, conducting academic classes and extracurricular activities to help integrate foreign students. Faculty members assist future doctors not only in mastering the academic material but also in making new friends, discovering Ukrainian hospitality, and learning about Ukrainian traditions.

 

Alongside their academic work, students will have the opportunity to take part in various cultural and social events that will contribute to their adaptation and personal development. The program includes excursions to historical sites.

 

After mastering the language and the basics of their professional training, the students will begin studying medicine. The educational program will give them the knowledge and skills necessary for their future careers. Graduates of this program will receive a high-quality education that will enable them to work in many countries.

 

Studying in Ukraine offers Ecuadorian students a unique opportunity to receive a prestigious medical education and also to gain invaluable experience in intercultural communication, broaden their worldview, and become part of an international community of professionals.

 

We wish the newly arrived students success in their studies, an interesting and productive stay in Ukraine, new achievements, and unforgettable experiences!
