Our students do their internship at relevant public health institutions in BiH (UCC Sarajevo, General Hospital “Prim.dr Abdulah Nakaš”), as well as at private clinics.
Our curricula follow the global trends in medicine and pharmacy and compete on equal footing with prestigious medical schools in Europe.
As part of the undergraduate studies, our program and methods of study are adapted so that students can take The United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) exam, which provides an added value to their studies and enables them to apply for internships at various clinics and hospitals across the world.
In addition to undergraduate studies, PhD study programs in clinical medicine and a PhD study program in biomedicine have also been launched.
As an answer to the needs of the society, healthcare systems and the employment market, we made the decision to launch our master studies in the area of health economics and pharmacoeconomics.
Why Health Economics and Pharmacoeconomics
All healthcare systems face increasing pressure due to limited resources and the growing need for value-based decision-making.
Health economics and pharmacoeconomics play a central role in ensuring the efficient allocation of resources, supporting sustainable healthcare systems, and improving access to effective and innovative treatments.
Health Technology Assessment (HTA) is a multidisciplinary process used to evaluate the value of health technologies—including medicines, medical devices, diagnostics, and treatment methods—through clinical, economic, and societal perspectives.
During HTA, key aspects include:
- Comparative effectiveness versus existing treatments
- Therapeutic outcomes and safety profiles
- Impact on quality of life
- Mode of application
- Cost and economic implications
- Impact on healthcare system organization
