Universities by major
Medicine and health-professional study in Jordan: the decisive criteria are programme accreditation, clinical training provision and licensing recognition, not institution size.
In short
5 institutions in this directory publish faculty provision in this field. This is a list of representation, not a ranking. For regulated professions the decisive factors are the accreditation status of the specific programme, the quality and availability of clinical or laboratory training, and whether the qualification is recognised by the licensing authority in the country where you intend to work.
No institution is described here as universally "the best". Each list states the criteria behind it, and the right choice depends on the student's objective. Criteria applied:

For this field, confirming programme accreditation is not optional. Check the programme's status with the Accreditation and Quality Assurance Commission, confirm the clinical or laboratory training arrangements with the department, and — if you intend to practise outside Jordan — check the destination regulator's requirements. None of this is recoverable after graduation.
Priority order: official Jordanian government authorities → official institution websites → accreditation organisations → official ranking organisations → Visit Jordan → other reliable sources. Claims that could not be verified from these are marked as unverified rather than presented as fact.
