937 students graduate from FNU’s College of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences

A total of 937 students graduated today from the College of Medicine, Nursing, and Health Sciences during the Fiji National University graduation ceremony at the Vodafone Arena.Of the 937 graduates, 725 are female and 212 are male.

By comparison, at the last graduation in April this year, 380 female and 198 male students graduated, bringing the total to 578.

Future Farms Limited CEO Stanley Raniga says the graduates have earned this moment of recognition, and he is confident they will go on to make a profound difference in the lives of many.

Raniga says that Medicine, Nursing, and Health Sciences are not merely academic disciplines — they are the pillars upon which healthy, thriving communities are built.

He stressed that in Fiji and across the Pacific, their work is essential not only in hospitals and clinics but also in communities, schools, homes, and remote areas where access to healthcare can be limited.

He adds that they represent the bright future of healthcare in Fiji and the Pacific, and that their dedication and passion will be the driving force behind healthier communities and a stronger region.
