About Pomeranian Medical University

Pomeranian Medical University (Pomorski Uniwersytet Medyczny) in Szczecin offers a six-year English Division programme in Poland's major northwestern port city, close to the German border. Clinical training takes place at the SPSK-1 and SPSK-2 university hospitals — Szczecin's primary academic medical centres serving the West Pomerania region. The university has developed notable strengths in nephrology, transplantation, and occupational medicine, reflecting the region's maritime and industrial heritage.

Research includes marine pharmacology and the health effects of port environments. Szczecin is a green, spacious city with extensive parks, lakes, and Oder River frontage, offering very affordable living and proximity to both Berlin (1.5 hours by train) and Baltic Sea beaches. The city is undergoing significant regeneration with new cultural facilities and waterfront development.

For UK students, PMU offers affordable English-taught medical education (approximately £10,000/year) in a border city with easy Berlin and Baltic access, EU-recognised qualifications, and the character of a less-touristed, authentic Polish experience.
