At NOVA Medical School, we believe that the medicine of the future requires three forces simultaneously: benchmark teaching, scientific excellence, and humanistic commitment. That is why we train healthcare professionals capable of integrating robust biomedical knowledge with critical thinking, ethics, empathy, and dedication to the common good.
Students are at the heart of NOVA Medical School.
We are accelerating a transformation in education that values active learning, clinical reasoning, interdisciplinarity, and the intelligent integration of digital technology. We want students who are autonomous, curious, and responsible, prepared to work in diverse teams, deal with uncertainty, and make informed decisions in a constantly evolving healthcare system.
Research is one of the pillars of our identity. Our goal is to strengthen collaborative environments, promote interdisciplinary science, and bring knowledge even closer to practice, policy, and people. Knowledge Centers and strategic partnerships are instruments of this ambition: to create relevant solutions, transfer evidence to the real world, and amplify the social impact of the science we produce.
We are also unequivocally committed to inclusion, equity, and community service. We want an open school that embraces diversity as a driver of quality and innovation and actively contributes to a healthier, fairer, and more informed society.
The “School of the Future” represents this vision. Preparing today's professionals, ideas, and solutions that anticipate challenges and improve lives with rigor, humanity, and ambition.
