IU | International University: Universities in Cambodia, Universities in Phnom Penh, Schools Phnom Penh Cambodia

Tuition is $3000USD per year. Instruction is in English. Mostly Cambodian students attend. 6 year program, but depending on your advanced credits can be 4 years (so says their website somewhere).

Costs of living in Cambodia extermely cheap (so I hear).

Yes, cost of living is cheap but not all schools listed on the world directory are decent schools providing sound quality of education. Do your search thouroughly before making any decision. This is a relatively new school. Most of their instructors do not speak English well enough to teach medicine in the language. I'm sure most of the teaching are in Cambodian. So make sure you're fluent in Cambodian before even considering this school. I think philippine schools are much much much better choice.

I have lectured there as a guest professor. I enjoyed it because the students understand English as the medical curriculum is taught in English. The facilities are modern and the lecture hall had state of the art audio visual tech. There is a spanking new hospital across the street from the main building.

I have also lectured at the other university, the public one, however it was frustrating because they teach in French and I can speak English and Spanish.

Overall, would you consider it a good school for foreign students?
