<p>
	<span style="fs:11px;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Most undergraduate students choose SUMS for our prestigious M.D., D.M.D., and Pharm.D. programs, and a large number of our graduate students are eager to gain knowledge and expertise in the fields of organ transplant, bone marrow transplant, cochlear implant, minimally invasive surgeries, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, and dermatology.&nbsp; &nbsp;</span></span></p>

<p>
	<span style="fs:11px;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">SUMS has built a student community of almost 10,000 people; therefore, students here encounter classes of all sizes. However, the average class sizes remain small, especially during clinical trainings, so as to enhance teachers and students interaction.&nbsp; &nbsp;</span></span></p>
