The University | About us... Founded in 2003, the University of Luxembourg is the only public university in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Multilingual, international and focused on research, it also defines itself as a modern institution with a human face. The University of Luxembourg, through its Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine, aims for excellence in research and in the education of biomedical sciences and health professions. A new Bachelor's degree in Medicine started in September 2020. Three Medical Specialisations, in General Medicine, Neurology and Oncology are also offered. Seven new Bachelors of Science in Nursing (Bachelor of Nursing in general care, and other Bachelors in the fields of surgery, anaesthesia, paediatrics, mental health, midwifery, radiology) are now planned to commence in September 2023. The University of Luxembourg will organise these Bachelors in Nursing by combining theoretical training using the latest technology with practical training in hospitals, clinics or outpatient clinics in collaboration with the various institutes in the country and foreign partners.
