Dr Jiri Novotny traveled from Olomouc for the inaugural exam. Both of these exams comprised papers in Biology, Chemistry and the student choice of Maths or Physics. Interviews followed the exams. This gave students the opportunity to discuss their work experience and motivation for pursing a career in Medicine.

On Monday 21st May, Vice-Dean of International Affairs Professor David Sedmera invigilated the exam for Charles University First Faculty of Medicine. Following the examination, the Medical Doorway team and Professor Semdera held a meeting with Principal Mark Blackshaw. This meeting confirmed the high demand for medical education in Hong Kong and the wider East Asian region.

With rapidly growing economies the need for high quality healthcare provision is only increasing. The introduction of exams for our Czech medical faculties is providing more choices for aspiring students in Hong Kong, who also demand high ranked globally recognised universities.

Helena Melicharova (Head of International Office) from Masaryk University’s Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry ran the final examination on Tuesday 22nd May. All the universities were supported by Ben Ambrose (Managing Director) and Gill Coleman (Director of Medical Admissions).

In addition to Hong Kong residents, students traveled from New Zealand, China, Taiwan and India to sit these exams. Our university colleagues also had the chance to explore this bustling Asian city. They were able to sample traditional Dim Sum, take the Star Ferry to Hong Kong Island and enjoy the world famous views from Victoria Peak.

The trip concluded with a tour of Youth Square. This is a government owned department designed to foster academic and personal development in young people. During this visit, the Medical Doorway team discussed reaching out to more students and hosting events and courses at the modern facilities in the Chi Wan area of Hong Kong island.
