This year, the DIMP student community welcomed a new cohort of medical students across four degree programmes:
✓ 🦷 I1 – Dentistry
✓ 🩺 I2 – Medicine
✓ 🦾 I7 – Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation
✓ 💊 I8 – Pharmacy
Greetings to the students and academic staff on the beginning of the new academic year from Maksym MIRZEBASOV, President of DIMP, were delivered by Iia DEHTIAROVA, Rector of DIMP. In her address, she highlighted the educational opportunities available at the Institute and expressed her hopes for students' academic achievements, research activities, and active participation in extracurricular life. 📚
Words of welcome were also delivered by Sviatoslav SEMENENKO, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs and Postgraduate Education; Olena TERTYSHNA, Head of the Department of Social Sciences, Humanities and Biomedical Disciplines; and parents of the students.
🤍 One of the most symbolic moments for first-year students was the traditional white coat ceremony. For a medical professional, a white coat is more than just an item of clothing. It represents the profession, knowledge, responsibility, compassion, trust, and a commitment to helping others.
The students also took the Medical Student Oath, affirming their readiness to become part of the Institute's academic community and take their first steps towards their chosen professions.
Now an exciting journey lies ahead: lectures and practical classes, new friendships, first professional achievements, the anticipation of exams, and, without a doubt, countless unforgettable student experiences!
We wish everyone a successful and inspiring academic year!
