International students share the same journey. We make sure they don’t walk it alone.
Board members bring experience from their own universities’ international student organisations. Together we build a platform to collaborate, combine shared experience and improve student life for the whole of our stay in the Czech Republic.
“The idea to create UIMS was born out of the realisation that all international medical students go through very similar experiences at whichever medical school they attend.”
