Until 2008, before the introduction of credit technology of education there were 3 dean’s offices in the university: dean’s office of medical and medical-preventive faculties; dean’s office of pediatric and stomatology faculties; dean’s office of the foreign department and the pharmaceutical faculty.

It combined the undergraduate specialties: General Medicine, Dentistry, Public Health, Nursing, Pharmacy and the foreign department.

The external evaluation of the achievements of the students is confirmed by the successful passing of the state certification of the specialty in 2012 and the institutional accreditation of the university in 2014, specialized accreditation in the bachelor’s specialties in 2015 and 2016. A relatively high percentage (88% of respondents) of employers’ satisfaction with the quality of graduate program preparation, as well as the high degree of demand for graduates of bachelor’s degree, the indicator of the employment of graduates – over 90% – testifies to the effectiveness of the goals of educational programs.
