Dear Students,
On behalf of the RCSI Bahrain School of Medicine I offer you a very warm welcome and congratulate you on obtaining a place in this prestigious school. We hope your time in the University will be a 
very happy and rewarding experience both academically and culturally. The University provides a vibrant blend of Irish and Middle Eastern traditions and we encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities to participate in the Clubs, Societies and the various social activities that go hand-in-hand with the educational process.
Medicine is a very challenging career. The road ahead is long and hard. We exhort you to work diligently from the very beginning, not just to achieve your own goals but also to meet the high expectations of the College of its graduates. All the staff of the University will do their very best to support you on this journey
I wish you every success with your studies.
