Besides, the Rector of Lesya Ukrainka Volyn National University Anatolii Tsios and the Vice-Rector for Scientific and Pedagogical Work and Innovations Vadym Ulianov revealed plans for the project of Medical Faculty’s optimisation to the Head and Members of the Supervisory Board.
“On the second floor, two basic departments will be arranged, namely, Anatomy and Histology. In particular, a histological laboratory will be supplied with modern equipment and also scientific microscopes for sections preparation. Appropriate software as well as additional simulators are required for practical physiology skills training. Having studied the theoretical part, the students will get down to practice, using modern technologies," – Vadym Ulianov explained.
In addition, according to the Vice-Rector, the faculty will have a conference hall, an office of virtual physiology, lecture and practical classrooms. A total of 245 students will have an opportunity to study here. The Head and other Members of the Supervisory Board studied the project of the faculty’s renovation and were shown the concept of the premises of the structural unit after the actual renovation to be funded by the State Fund for Regional Development.
Vadym Oleksiiovych mentioned in this context that after the renovation, the faculty should have a modern educational space so that the students can study independently in comfortable conditions.
After learning the details of the faculty’s work, the Rector, Vice-Rectors and guests discussed the prospects for the development of the Medical Faculty. After the meeting, Anatolii Tsios expressed his gratitude to the Head and Members of the Supervisory Board for their comprehensive support: “I am sincerely grateful to the Head of the Supervisory Board Ihor Palytsia, Iryna Konstankevych and Oleksandr Tovsteniuk for their multi-lateral support and assistance. It is very important to implement plans not individually, but as a team. Our success largely depends on this cooperation. ”
