The medicine program of the Remington University Corporation – Uniremington, has received the high quality accreditation issued by the Ministry of National Education, thanks to its actions of social projection, focus on family and community health, and relevance of research projects carried out by teachers and undergraduate students.
Given this achievement, Paula Andrea Arango Gutiérrez, rector of Uniremington, stated that “For Uniremington and its Faculty of Health Sciences, this accreditation demonstrates the commitment of all members of the institutional community, who have participated in the self-assessment processes and continuous improvement of the program, the development of research projects, as well as its positive impact through extension actions and social projection”.
It should be noted that about 23% of the students who study medicine at Uniremington Medellín come from different municipalities in Colombia and, in many cases, they return to their cities of origin to practice the medical profession, a fact that contributes to improving the health system nationwide.
