Gulf Medical University Continues to Shine as a Regional Leader in Medical Education
Gulf Medical University (GMU) is maintaining its position as the top choice for ambitious students seeking fields like Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and advanced postgraduate programs. The university is currently accelerating its growth in education, research, and innovation, with a new academic year approaching.
In a significant move, GMU has appointed Prof Manda Venkatramana as its new Chancellor. Simultaneously, Prof Dr. Hesham Marei has been named as the Vice Chancellor - Academics. Both appointments were approved by the Board of Trustees.
Prof Venkatramana plans to introduce innovative new doctoral, master's, and bachelor's programs at GMU.
