ASAN International Visiting Scholars
(IViS) Program

According to the mission of ASAN Medical Center, IViS Program aims to contribute to the health of society by providing the highest quality education for the health of mankind.
For years, AMC has been successfully training overseas physicians to share the advanced medical skills, technology, and research work of AMC.
By pairing these experiences, overseas physicians are able to comprehend clinical application concepts observed during training, and are able to apply these concepts in clinical scenarios back at their nations.
In addition, networks established among international physicians through AMC training program have enabled the co-development of medical standards in diverse nations.

Our doors are always open to those who are in line with us
