Global Medical Foundation is excited to introduce prospective Indian students to Caucasus University (CU) as a leading choice for studying MBBS in Georgia. Caucasus University’s origins date back to 1998. The Caucasus University we know today was established as the Caucasus School of Business (CSB) through cooperation between the US Government and Georgia State University. This collaboration introduced the first Western-style business education in Georgia. In 2004, Caucasus University was formally established, building upon the foundation of the Caucasus School of Business. Shobhit Jayaswal from Global Medical Foundation has visited Caucasus University and maintains a positive and collaborative relationship with its management team. We have sent many students to CU, Georgia. Please note that Caucasus University and Caucasus International University are distinct institutions. While both are prominent in Georgia, especially in medical education, they are separate universities.

Today, Caucasus University has expanded to ten specialized schools: Business, Law, Media, Technology, Architecture and Design, Governance, Humanities and Social Sciences, Tourism, Medicine, Economics, and Education. Each school offers a high-quality, global-oriented education. More than 500 Indian students study at CU’s Caucasus Medicine School. CU is listed on WDOMS as Caucasus Medicine School.

Caucasus University is one of the most prestigious higher education institutions in Georgia and Eastern Europe, and it is well known for its commitment to innovation and internationalization. CU supports international experiences for students, including exchange programs, joint educational offerings, and research collaborations with universities worldwide. Currently, CU has partnerships with 265 institutions in 68 countries, connecting students with a global network of universities, companies, and professionals. At Global Medical Foundation, we believe Caucasus University provides a comprehensive and dynamic environment for Indian students seeking an internationally recognized MBBS degree.
