Szeged University Medical Alumni Association SUMAA Welcome to the Szeged University Alumni Association website! We invite all the graduated students to join and help us! The Alumni Team

The association was created with the main goal to improve and promote communication between former students of the medical program, the faculty and its current students. Please browse our site to learn more about how you can connect with your fellow alumni, how you can stay updated of our news and how you can find out more about our goals. For current students we plan to provide various supportive services, like how they can get involved in research early on and mentorship programs.
