Medical University of Silesia is one for the largest medical universities in the country and the largest in the Silesian voivodeship. In the walls of our University many generations of students obtained knowledge and education, including some Polish medicine icons. It was our Alma Mater that has been providing opportunities for scientific research, which significantly improved quality and effectiveness of treating thousands of patients.

We are at the forefront of universities using virtual teaching and medical simulation. Our students can choose between three Centres of Medical Simulation, which were created thanks to financial support provided by the European Union. The students have at their disposal numerous simulation rooms of high fidelity, including: intensive care rooms, operating rooms or labour rooms.

Manikins used in the centres, stand out as highly realistic (they speak, breath, cry and even bleed).Our students can practice in a virtual operating theatre and a virtual dentist’s room and also use the application „Virtual patient”.
