As for undergraduate education we are responsible for separate courses or parts of courses within four different programmes: The Medicinal Programme, The Biomedicine Programme, The Biomedical Laboratory Science Programme, and The International Crisis and Conflict Management Programme. As for doctoral graduate education we provide education for those who wish to doctorate within our different clinical areas.
