Dean's Welcome

A few words about the MediCampus Europeo

Dean of the Faculty

Prof. Peter Labas, MD, PhD


Welcome to MediCampus Europeo!


My name's Prof. Peter Labas, I have many years of experience working as a surgeon and university professor, I've been Dean of the Faculty of Medicine for 8 years at the Comenius State University in Bratislava and I worked as a surgeon in Malta at the Mater Dei Hospital and the Hospital of Gozo. I am honored to start this new chapter of my long career as Dean at the MediCampus Europeo - MCE.


MCE intend to a place, where the diversity of us, the academic staff, and you, our students, combined with the excellence we are aiming to achieve, is unmatched anywhere else. The unique strength of our community is that we are different, yet the same. We may come from different backgrounds. We may have different skills and talents. We may have lived through different experiences. We may have different approaches to different situations. But no matter what predispositions we have, what brings us together, are our goals - to improve the well being and health of our communities. So, no matter who you are, what you do, and how you do it, MCE is a place, where you can thrive, and reach your destiny 


As mentioned, our strength lies in our diversity and differences. This makes MCE a community, of which it is exciting to be a part of. We study not only medicine. We study us, and the people around. We explore our differences, we debate, we teach others and we let others teach us. We push and innovate even the highest ideals of medicine. This is what makes us better members of our communities.


We, as a Faculty know, that you are the main part of this process and thus we make you the centre of our actions. We promote a teacher-student partnership, which we start building from the first day of your lessons. We believe, that if developed step by step, throughout all years of study, in a dynamic and competitive framework, you will be lead to form one of the greatest generations of physicians we have seen and that you will improve the medical field as whole.


All of the experienced Faculty staff invites you on a journey, in our historical Campus, where we will guide you to discover one of the most noble professions of humankind. I am convinced that we will fulfil your dreams and the visions of the cultures you represent through joint commitment, cooperation and responsibility and train you to become adept doctors.


I cannot express how glad I am that you have decided to join us on this journey and I am looking forward to welcoming you at our Faculty and building a dynamic, innovative and performing academic community together!


All best regards,


Prof. Peter Labas, MD, PhD
