Organization profile

Organization profile

The educational community of PUCE and the School of Medicine have a common purpose: to promote the path to excellence. A path that this School began more than 27 years ago and today is consolidated in promotions of young doctors with technical and social competencies integrated into our health system. We are committed to teachers who sow amazement, curiosity and reflection in students with each class; to students who motivate us with their questions and dynamism. We are teachers and students motivated to be part of inter-institutional research groups. From the first levels we maintain direct contact with the service to the community. We live the problems of health and seek how to be part of the solution. To live in a moral way is to live for others, and this is the horizon that motivates us.
