The Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka was founded on July 12, 1955 . The reason for establishing the first medical faculty in Croatia outside of Zagreb was the overcapacity of the Faculty of Medicine in Zagreb , where more and more students from Istria , Primorje , Gorski Kotar , and the surrounding regions were studying. In Rijeka, there was also a long tradition in the education of medical workers, so there were excellent prerequisites for the establishment of a medical faculty.
