Karaganda state medical University

Karaganda state medical University is almost the only educational institution that trains specialists with higher medical education in various professions. The Foundation of the higher education institution began in 1931, but at that time the number of graduates was too low, which naturally did not meet the needs of the population. In 1940, the University building was rebuilt and enlarged. In 1961, the Institute of medicine was awarded the first category. A year later, the entire hospital system of the city was presented to students of the medical institution to acquire clinical skills. Even then, the level of education in our University was high. Together with the educational institution, the development of research works was started.

In 2002, the educational institution received a license to provide not only educational services, but also medical services, thanks to which the University has its own private outpatient diagnostic clinic. The educational complex consists of five academic buildings with classrooms that are equipped with the necessary medical equipment, audio and video equipment and additional equipment.

The University cooperates with sixty universities, clinics and research centers from twenty-two countries. Special attention is paid to foreign internships, which can be held by future doctors in the chosen or assigned educational institution.
