About Barbados

Study MBBS in Barbados

Barbados is a small island nation situated close to the Atlantic Ocean, east of the other West Indies islands. Its capital, Bridgetown, is a UNESCO World Heritage site — a beautiful, colonial-era city with pink and white coral sand beaches, warm turquoise waters, and the legendary generosity of Barbadians.

Barbados offers a US-driven medical education system with a meticulous curriculum that mirrors US, UK, and Canadian medical schools. Students have access to the same medical tools and course materials as their North American counterparts — positioning Barbados MBBS graduates among the best-prepared for USMLE Step 1, 2, and 3 examinations.

Barbados International University (BIU) holds accreditation from Medical Council of India (MCI), ECFMG (Education Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates, USA), FAIMER's IMED, ACGME (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education), and MCC (Medical Council of Canada) — one of the most comprehensive international accreditations available. This opens doors to medicine in India, USA, Canada, and UK from a single degree.
