HEALTH, LISTENING, AND SUPPORT: A CARING AND SUPPORTIVE CAMPUS
Because academic success is inextricably linked to good physical and mental health, the University of Yaoundé I places the well-being of its community at the heart of its priorities. Through tailored support, care, and counseling services, the institution works every day to provide each student with a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment throughout their academic journey.
The Medical-Social Center (CMS): Your Healthcare at Your Fingertips.
Located at the top of the campus, the Medical and Social Center is the primary healthcare facility for all students. Staffed by a team of doctors, nurses, and qualified personnel, it provides:
- General practice consultations and emergency nursing care.
- Les campagnes de vaccination et de dépistage gratuit.
- Basic pharmacy and laboratory testing services at discounted rates for students.
Counseling and Psychological Support Center
University life can sometimes involve periods of stress, self-doubt, or personal difficulties. To support students facing these challenges, a confidential and free counseling service is available. Professional psychologists provide a supportive space for students to talk through difficulties adjusting to university life, exam stress, or situations of personal distress.
An inclusive campus for everyone
In keeping with its values of equality, the UYI pays special attention to students with disabilities. Specific support measures—ranging from exam accommodations to the gradual improvement of infrastructure accessibility—are implemented to ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.
