Becoming a highly qualified doctor is prestigious and promises high career growth. Today, it is difficult to obtain a medical education for several reasons: many requirements for applicants, competitive selection for a budget (from five people per place). Today, three main medical areas are popular among students: general medicine, pharmacy and dentistry. Less popular, but in great demand in medical institutions, are still the following areas - surgeon, therapist, ENT, gynecologist. New narrow professions are emerging - plastic surgery, manual therapy, cosmetology, dietetics and acupuncture.
It is not surprising that due to the popularity of medical education, the cost of studying in Russia starts from 300,000 rubles, regardless of the location of the university. At the same time, a diploma obtained in Russia does not open up the possibility of working in Europe. Secondary confirmation of your qualifications is required. Therefore, applicants pay attention to European medical universities, where after completing their studies they have the opportunity to obtain citizenship and choose to work in any country in the world. So how to choose the best university with quality medical education?
Medical education abroad
As in Russia, it is difficult to obtain a medical education abroad, especially for foreigners. Getting in on a budget basis is not possible, because the competition for one place is from 100 people. There are no benefits for foreign applicants. At the same time, the cost of medical specialization is many times higher than that of other specialties. But the training lasts almost ten years! For about 4 years, a student undergoes a general education program, another 4 years of study in the chosen field and two years of internship.
Note! Despite the above difficulties, a diploma of completion of medical education opens up the possibility of obtaining a prestigious job anywhere in the world.
