Rector's address

The establishment of AVICENNA – Batumi Medical University marks a significant step forward for medical education and research in the region. From its inception, the institution stands on three core pillars: the quality of education, research and innovation, and the acquisition of talents.

AVICENNA was founded by leading hospitals and is integrated within the largest medical corporation in the region, with decades of medical expertise and experience. The establishment of the university offered a unique opportunity to synthesize these challenges and insights into the education of future medical professionals.

From my perspective, the university is poised to become a protagonist in medical education, contributing substantially to medical research and innovation. In this context, the internationalization policy serves as a foundational document that I am fully committed to promoting and implementing in alignment with its core principles.

As the founder and rector of AVICENNA, I recognize the profound responsibility entrusted to me to integrate my knowledge, experience, and vision in service of the university’s mission. It is my firm belief that education serves as the most powerful means to unite individuals from diverse national, religious, and social backgrounds around a common goal: to save lives.

We are honored to play our role in this initiative.
