Umeå Universitet (UMU)

The couse is so dynamic and good.

the mode of teaching is excellent, and the lecturers are quite articulate with their job

I recommend Umea univerisity for a quality and  international experience

I’m currently studying medicine here, and in terms of the program itself, everything is well-structured and meets expectations. The education is solid, and academically, I have no complaints. However, one aspect that had a significant impact on me was the social environment among the students.

I've found that many people in the medicine program can come across as cold or even a bit unkind — it reminded me a lot of high school dynamics. At first, I thought it was just my class, but after interacting with students from other class, I realized they experienced the same atmosphere. There’s often a sense of walking on eggshells when trying to engage with classmates, which makes it difficult to form meaningful connections.

So, if you're looking for a tight-knit, friendly group or hoping to make lasting friendships, I wouldn’t particularly recommend studying healthcare in Umeå. But if you're focused purely on the education and don’t mind a more distant social scene, it's definitely a strong university academically.
