History

At the beginning of 2023, the KGMA and KSTU announced ambitious plans to create a joint faculty that would pioneer medical engineering in the country. This step was decisive in many aspects, as medical engineering was a relatively new field of education and required thorough training in both medical and technical fields.

Initially, a working group of experienced faculty and specialists from both universities was established to develop curricula, programs and organize the infrastructure for the future faculty. This required intensive work and harmonization between the two educational institutions. Working together strengthened the cooperation between KGMA and KSTU and brought together the best practices of both universities.

By the time the faculty opened in September 2023, state-of-the-art curricula had been developed. There are now 18 motivated and talented young people studying in the first year, eager for new knowledge and challenges.

The opening of the faculty was an important event for both universities and the medical industry as a whole.
