The city of
Bratislava is beautifully located on the Danube River, where
Slovak border meets both Austria and Hungary (therefore an excellent location for connecting
flights from Vienna and Budapest). Bratislava is well serviced with numerous daily direct
flights from London Luton and Stansted airports.
The city itself has been the capital of the newly formed Slovak Republic since January 1
st,
1993. As the newest European capital, it has become one of the most attractive destinations.
It is an important industrial, educational and cultural centre. The historic town has a
charming atmosphere with many things to see and do.

Comenius University named after the famous pedagogue and philosopher, Jan Amos Comenius so-called "teacher of nations", is dated way back to the 15
th century. Originally baptised as
Academia Istropolitana, the university has been a long standing institution of the intellectual life and multi-cultural centre.
The Faculty of Medicine seeks to educate graduate students to high intellectual level and competence in the fine art of medicine. Although widely recognised, students are advised to check with their own Medical or Dental Council/Authority to confirm the status of Comenius University.
