Student stories

What students say

Nursing classes at Cyprus Health and Social Sciences University are in English, but we practice patient dialogue in Turkish too, which employers value. The simulation ward with mannequins made my first hospital rotation far less intimidating.

Business Administration at Cyprus Health and Social Sciences University surprised me with how practical it is; we built a full marketing plan for a local Nicosia café in second year. The scholarship discount made my budget work.
