Italy
Italy is one of Europe's most respected destinations for English-medium MBBS/MD education.

Admission process
New Zealand
New Zealand offers university study in a safe, English-speaking environment with strong connections to research, professional practice and the Pacific region. Students can compare undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral options across Auckland and other cities, while checking programme-specific fees, entry rules, visa conditions and professional registration requirements.
Admission process
Italy
Italian public medical universities offer degrees recognised by WHO, NMC, and ECFMG — giving Indian graduates eligibility for FMGE/NExT licensing and international practice. Tuition fees are significantly lower than the UK or Australia. IMAT is an objective, entrance-exam-based pathway with test centres in India. Italy's medical education traces back to the world's first university (Bologna, 1088) and Padova (1222), giving Indian students an academic heritage unmatched in European medicine.

New Zealand
Students choose New Zealand for its English-medium universities, applied learning and clear qualification framework. Auckland combines a large international city with access to health, business, technology, law and creative-industry employers. International applicants should plan for tuition, accommodation, insurance and visa funds separately, because costs and work conditions depend on the programme and current immigration rules.
