On May 10th, 2024, we celebrated a significant milestone: the graduation of our inaugural cohort of international medical students at “The Great Gatsby Graduation Gala” held at Gaysorn Urban Resort, Gaysorn Tower. This event marks the beginning of their journey as doctors, and we extend our warmest wishes for their success in their medical careers.
The MDKMITL program is committed to fostering a new generation of international medical students. Our goal is not only to train doctors but also to cultivate well-rounded professionals. We focus on developing robust professional and research skills, as well as essential 21st-century abilities like communication and collaboration. This comprehensive approach prepares students to become internationalized doctors—physicians with a global perspective ready to serve our community effectively. Their dedication and the skills they acquire here ensure a future marked by impactful contributions to the healthcare landscape.
