Universidad Interamericana offers medical training in Pedro Juan Caballero

Universidad Interamericana, located in Pedro Juan Caballero on the border between Paraguay and Brazil, is offering medical degree programs with an emphasis on practical training and integrated academic activities. The institution provides an entry path for students without the requirement of a traditional entrance exam (vestibular).

The curriculum includes core subjects such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and microbiology. Students engage in practical activities starting in their early years, utilizing resources like community clinics and a Medical Simulation Center (CSim). Instruction is conducted in Spanish, aiming to develop both academic and clinical communication skills.

To reinforce theoretical knowledge and clinical reasoning, the university employs Integrated Academic Activities (AAI), including pedagogical competitions like ‘Trivia’ designed to foster teamwork among future medical professionals.
