The Faculty of Medecine and Pharmacy of the University of Mons welcomed its first students in October 1973. There are already numerous doctors, chemists and biomedical scientists that can testify to a rigorous humanistic education.
The instructors of the Faculty are also researchers - mathematicians, physicists, chemists, biochemists, biologists, pharmacists or doctors – who provide easily accessible and high quality teaching. Small classes, generously proportioned auditoriums and laboratories and the accessibility of research facilities integrated into the Faculty infrastructures help guarantee excellence.
As it should be in a university, the Faculty organises and manages teaching based on fundamental and multi-field scientific research. Its research teams are equipped with the most modern instruments and work in technologically advanced sectors. The quality of their work is recognised through the many national and international collaborations in which they take part.
The Faculty of Medecine and Pharmacy holds its own in a human scale University that combines modernity, proximity, international renown and tradition in the very heart of Hainaut..
