Our Role in the Global Medical Education Community

Recognition on a global scale is important for any medical education institution. This is even more so for a young medical school like ours, in order to reassure the SAR Government, the public as well as stakeholders that our Medical School will produce students with the necessary credentials.

Our Faculty is in a network of global medical schools. We have been listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools since October 2019. The Directory is published by the World Federation of Medical Education and the Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education and Research.

We are also a founding member of the World Portuguese Speaking Countries Medical School Alliance, established in November 2019. This alliance has 12 other founding members from Portugal, Brazil and Mozambique.

Furthermore, our Medical School has a medical education collaboration agreement with the National Health Commission (formerly The Ministry of Health) of the People’s Republic of China in order to enhance co-operation between mainland China and Macau S.A.R. in the fields of medicine and health, particularly in continued medical education and skills training for healthcare professionals.
