International Cooperation

One of the top priorities for the growth of the University is the expansion of the various forms of collaboration in the areas of teaching and research.

Many of the scientific research projects and clinical trials at PUMS are conducted in partnership with foreign institutions. PUMS partner universities include schools from Germany, France, the USA, Belgium, Italy, Scotland, Norway, Sweden, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Israel, China, Japan, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea, Canada, Brazil, Switzerland, Morocco, Thailand and Peru.

We are an active member of the Erasmus+ international student mobility program (Erasmus Charter for PUMS), each year hosting around 70 students and sending twice as many exchange students abroad. The full list of our current Erasmus+ partner schools is available here.

PUMS is also a strategic partner to West Kazakhstan Marat Ospanov State Medical University as a part of Kazakhstan’s effort to improve the quality of education and further development of local medical staff.

Many of our doctors and faculty are members of international scientific societies and committees serving as renowned specialists in their fields, as well as national expert consultants.

The University also hosts around 25 international scientific conferences each year.
