Overview
- University of A Coruña approved a declaration of interest and will hold off sending its verification dossier until 2027 to prioritize a negotiated solution.
- Two conditions apply: UDC will resume its own process if agreed timelines or terms are not honored, and immediate submission will be authorized if another university or a private provider files to teach Medicine in Galicia.
- UDC’s proposal calls for decentralizing clinical years in 2026/27 and 2027/28, a single Sergas agreement linking hospitals by territory (CHUAC–UDC, CHUS–USC, CHUVI–UVigo), a minimum 25% of students per campus, a 25% cap on externally linked faculty, and funding outside the current plan.
- The Xunta and the University of Santiago reiterate support for one USC faculty with fourth to sixth years taught also in A Coruña and Vigo.
- Nineteen CHUAC doctors with university accreditation urge an equitable pact, arguing current arrangements block fair access to teaching posts, as UVigo keeps its own deadlines in reserve.
