The programme and the setting
The former Crimea State Medical University became part of V.I. Vernadsky Crimean Federal University. The university identifies the present academic unit as the Medical Institute named after S.I. Georgievsky.
Clinical learning and academic experience
The university states that students undertake practical training in designated hospitals. Request the current curriculum, awarding institution and clinical-training records.
Teaching language and your qualification
Check the language of lectures, examinations, clinical teaching and internship for the exact route you choose. Russian for patient communication is a separate part of preparation, even where academic teaching is in English. Read the curriculum and language statement together.
