Medical University of Bialystok is a public medical university in north-eastern Poland with a six-year Medicine program taught in English. It is a good fit for applicants who want a smaller student city, a central campus and a Medicine-only English degree option.
MUB lists Medicine in English as a long-cycle program through the Faculty of Medicine with the Division of Dentistry and the Division of Medical Education in English. The official admission page says the university has around 6,000 students and about 475 students in the English Division, with applicants coming from many countries.

Best fit

Applicants who want Medicine in English in Poland, prefer a quieter city and are comfortable with an admission interview rather than a classic written Biology-Chemistry entrance exam.

Watch out for

MUB does not offer a four-year English MD program. The interview is not just a language conversation: applicants choose two science subjects from Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics, and the questions are not limited to the sample questions.

Student life in Bialystok

City fit

Bialystok is a smaller and usually more affordable city than Warsaw or Krakow. MUB's campus is central, near the Branicki Palace, teaching hospitals, dormitory, sports facilities and green areas. Dormitory No. 2 is close to the clinical and basic-science faculties, but rooms are limited.

Budget check

Compare tuition, rent, food, documents, flights and exam fees together. A lower tuition number does not always mean the cheapest total year.
