Rector of the Catholic University of Lublin, Fr. Prof. Mirosław Kalinowski announced that the medical faculty will be launched in 2023. He added that the university has established cooperation in this matter with the Medical University of Lublin, Medical College of Wisconsin in the USA, Gemelli Polyclinic and the University of “La Sapienza” in Rome, Holy Spirit University of Kaslik in Lebanon and the local School of Medicine and Medical Sciences, and the University of Navarra in Pamplona, Spain.
