Hi everyone, it's Global Scholarships and I'm your host as I hope you're all doing well. I hope
0:04
everything is going great and today we're going to see the nine best medical schools in Switzerland
0:10
So let's get to it. Switzerland is one of the leading countries in medical education
0:15
but most of its schools included in the top 100 medical institutions in the world
0:19
However, getting into their medical schools is almost impossible for international students
0:24
especially those with no relation to the country. Despite the slim chances of getting in, however, any aspiring student should still try and apply to Swiss medical schools
0:34
There are only six universities in Switzerland offering medicine and all of them are highly acknowledged in the medical industry
0:40
Their educational system is recognized globally and offers excellent career prospects for its graduates
0:46
In this video, we will discuss the best medical schools in the country

0:56
original faculties in the university since 1876. The faculty offers medical education and research at an
1:03
international level. The university is also in partnership with the university hospitals of Geneva
1:08
the largest hospital complex in Switzerland. Because of all of these, the faculty is one of the
1:14
leading institutions in neuroscience, genetics, transplantation and more. The language of instruction
1:20
at this top medical school in Switzerland is French. So they require prospective students to
1:26
take the French language test before admission. At number two, we have University of Ziri

1:37

4:04
the curriculum incorporates innovative educational methods. Thought in German, the program covers the anatomy and physiology of the human body and builds
4:13
clinical and scientific knowledge. Since the university does not have a hospital to train students, all graduates are guaranteed

Lugano and Zuri. At number seven, we have University of Freiburg, with a history that goes to
