Humanitas University is a private Italian medical school in Milan, opened in 2014 and directly integrated with Humanitas Research Hospital — one of Italy's most technologically advanced private hospitals (IRCCS designation). The six-year English-taught Medicine and Surgery programme benefits from this unique integration: students gain clinical exposure from year one in a hospital renowned for minimally invasive surgery, oncology, immunology, and cardiovascular medicine. The hospital's robotic surgery programme (including the da Vinci system) is among Italy's most active, giving students early exposure to surgical technology.

Research is led by the Humanitas Clinical and Research Centre, with world-class groups in innate immunity (led by Prof. Alberto Mantovani, one of the world's most-cited immunologists) and autoimmune diseases. The campus is purpose-built with cutting-edge simulation facilities and small class sizes (approximately 100 students).

For UK students, Humanitas offers an English-taught, private-university experience with guaranteed clinical access, world-class research, modern facilities, and Milan's cultural advantages — though tuition is higher than public universities (approximately €20,000/year). The degree is EU-recognised and GMC-registrable.
