On August 12, Saint George University of Beirut welcomed its new MED 1 students for a special orientation day marking the beginning of their journey in medical education. The event offered students an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the university, meet members of the Faculty of Medicine, connect with their peers, and gain valuable insights into the academic experience and opportunities that await them at SGUB.
Throughout the day, students were introduced to the university’s learning environment, academic journey, and the support and resources available to them as they begin their studies. The orientation also provided a welcoming space for students to ask questions, build new connections, and take their first steps toward becoming future healthcare professionals.
More than an introduction to university life, the MED 1 Orientation Day was a first glimpse into the experiences, challenges, and opportunities that will shape their years at Saint George University of Beirut. As our newest medical students embark on this exciting chapter, SGUB looks forward to supporting them throughout their journey, empowering them to learn, grow, and develop the knowledge, skills, and values needed to make a meaningful difference in healthcare.
