RCSI Medical University of Bahrain celebrated the outstanding academic achievements of 48 students from its Schools of Medicine and Nursing and Midwifery during the annual President’s Honours List ceremony for the academic year 2025/26.

The ceremony was attended by Professor Cathal Kelly, Vice Chancellor and CEO/Registrar of RCSI Dublin; Professor Sameer Otoom, President of RCSI Medical University of Bahrain; Mr Stephen Harrison-Mirfield, Managing Director; Professor Alfred Nicholson, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Head of School of Medicine; and Professor Kathryn Strachan, Head of School of Nursing and Midwifery.

The President’s Honours List recognises the six highest-achieving students from each undergraduate year group, celebrating their dedication, academic excellence and commitment to their studies. As part of this recognition, eligible students receive financial scholarship awards, while their achievements are formally recorded on their academic transcripts.

The initiative reflects the University’s continued commitment to recognising academic achievement, inspiring excellence and supporting the development of future healthcare professionals.

Our sincere appreciation goes to the Registry Services, Student Services and Events teams for their efforts in organising the ceremony and supporting this annual initiative.

Congratulations to all 48 students on this well-deserved recognition. We wish them continued success in their academic journeys!
