UAG School of Medicine is in Guadalajara, one of Mexico's largest, most progressive, and socially influential cities. Guadalajara is a spectacular cultural center in the heart of Mexico. You'll immediately become immersed in the art, music, vibrant colors, and savory dishes of the region.
Guadalajara has a strong focus on entrepreneurship as well as innovation. It is home to some of the best hospitals in Latin America that provide students with a broad range of experiences inside and outside the classroom.
Because of its friendly people, climate, safe environment, and natural and architectonical beauty, the city and the surrounding areas appeal to international visitors and are a renowned retirement destination in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta (on the Pacific coast), Chapala (the largest lake in Mexico), the town of Tequila (birthplace of tequila), Guanajuato (a lovely colonial city), and many other historical and cultural venues are all easy to reach from Guadalajara.
