Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery

The single-cycle Master’s Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery at Humanitas University lasts six years and is taught entirely in English. From the first year, interdisciplinary theoretical modules are integrated with practical exercises and simulation activities.

Clinical training begins in the third year at various Humanitas hospitals, under the supervision of specialized tutors who guide students throughout their clinical practice.

Students may also apply to join the Virgilio Program, an additional track focused on biomedical research. This program allows them to enrich their curriculum through interdisciplinary seminars, interactive learning activities, and hands-on laboratory experience – one month per year – fostering active participation in scientific research.

Future doctors will also have the opportunity to spend a period abroad, thanks to scholarships, travel grants, and the Erasmus Program. Conferences and seminars with renowned Italian and international doctors and researchers are organised to promote cultural awareness and support professional academic growth.
