Dean : Dr. Mustafe Abdi Hassan (MBBS MDS)

On behalf of the faculty, staff and students I would like to welcome you to the BIU faculty of medicine and nursing.  We are an institution that remains committed to protecting the health of our community while continuing to stay focused on academics, research, community engagement and public service.

  Diversity, equity, and inclusion are necessary to achieve both academic and institutional excellence. The faculty of medicine and nursing is deliberate in its efforts to ensure that each student, staff and faculty feel a sense of belonging and know that their contributions are valued and are an essential part of our institutional success.

We recognize the growing demand for highly-qualified doctors and nurses in leadership roles, clinical care, teaching, and research and have designed our programs around the idea that doctors and nurses can have a great career and a great life while getting a great education.

As dean of faculty of medicine and nursing, I would like to take this opportunity to encourage all of you who are beginning or enriching your professional doctor and nursing career to explore a faculty of medicine and nursing, and we look forward to helping you reach your career goals and becoming future healthcare leaders.
