1.26Faculty of Medicine
The Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka was founded in 1955. It was the first faculty established outside Zagreb and is the eldest member institution of the University of Rijeka. The Faculty's activities began with teaching in the final years of medical study. After having gained complete independence from the University of Zagreb‘s Faculty of Medicine in 1957, teaching activities developed rapidly with an increasing number of academic staff holding teaching and research positions. In 1961, a postgraduate study was established at the Faculty, and, along with the study of Medicine, a number of other university and vocational study programs have since been introduced. Research activities began to develop soon after the Faculty was founded. The first doctoral dissertation was presented at the Faculty as early as 1959. Rapid development of fundamental medical sciences contributed significantly to research and professional development of clinical medical sciences. By the end of the 1970s, the Faculty introduced a vocational study in Nursing, followed by other studies that are still carried out. All study programs were renewed in accordance with the Bologna process in 2005, and the ECTS evaluation system was adopted. A university study in Organization, planning and management in health care was designed on the principles of the Bologna declaration, and finally a vocational study in Midwifery was established. The Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka is the most influential research institution in the Republic of Croatia outside Zagreb and the most widely recognized research institution of the University of Rijeka. Several internationally recognized research teams at the Faculty are recognized as leaders in their respective fields. A major contribution to research development and recognition was provided by the employment or re-employment of several recognized scientists from abroad who formed their groups and continue their successful work. The Faculty of Medicine has invested significantly in the education of research and academic staff, as well as in modern equipment and the establishment of new laboratories and centres. The Faculty of Medicine has organized numerous scientific congresses and symposia, and, some of them at the highest international level. Many Croatian and international awards as well as the highest state science awards of the Republic of Croatia were granted to researchers of the Faculty of Medicine.
