Dear graduated students!
Now your dreams have come true – you have become a medical student. From now on, your life will be related to Medicine, the most humane and noble science and profession.
Privolzhsky Research Medical University trains medical, science and academic staff to meet up-to-date requirements in the areas of public health practice and medical science. To become a real doctor, you must be prepared to work hard at the university departments and clinical sites where experienced and gifted teachers – experts in the field! – will teach you. The university has good training facilities and operational research equipment available. It also arranges for the students to have internships at the largest hospitals of the city and leading clinical centers abroad.
It is a challenge to study at this university, since a doctor always sets the bar high in terms of profession, morals and ethics.

You are familiar with the Code of Conduct for PRMU students which outlines core ethical values for a future doctor. Please honour them and be worthy of the university – well-reputed in the country and globally, – share and cherish its traditions and glory.
Through hardships to the stars! Per aspera ad astra!
