Novi Sad is Serbia's second-largest city, on the Danube river in the Vojvodina region. The Faculty's primary teaching hospital, the Clinical Center of Vojvodina, has served as its main clinical and research base since the 1960s-70s. The six-year, 360-ECTS integrated Medicine programme (first- and second-level studies combined, leading directly to the Doctor of Medicine title) is taught entirely in English. Clinical training runs through the Clinical Center of Vojvodina, the Faculty's principal teaching hospital since its clinical-hospital status was formalized in the 1960s-70s. A detailed year-by-year pre-clinical/clinical curriculum breakdown and a full list of secondary clinical-partner sites were not published by the Faculty at the level of detail needed to state here with confidence. ## Hostel, food and safety University dormitory places in Novi Sad are state-subsidized and generally reserved for Serbian students or those covered by a specific inter-state agreement; the university's own guidance directs most international students toward private rental housing near the Faculty, with the Faculty's International Department and Erasmus Student Network volunteers available to help with the search. No specific on-campus meal plan or dining-cost figure is published for international Medicine students. Food costs should be planned as part of an independent living-cost budget alongside private accommodation. No university-published campus-safety statistics were found. International applicants can direct queries to the Faculty's dedicated Studies in English contact for day-to-day support. International admissions and enrollment run through a dedicated Studies in English contact (medns.studiesinenglish@mf.uns.ac.rs). The Faculty's International Department and Erasmus Student Network volunteers support incoming students with settling in and finding private housing. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is the Medicine programme direct-entry after high school?
