The discussion began with an introduction to the university’s history, achievements, and educational philosophy. The Deputy Head emphasized the university’s long-standing reputation for producing highly skilled medical professionals who excel both in Russia and internationally. With state-of-the-art laboratories, modern teaching hospitals, and a highly qualified faculty, NCSMU provides an ideal environment for students to learn, practice, and innovate.

A key focus of the meeting was on international student opportunities, particularly in MBBS, Nursing, Dentistry (BDS), and Pharmacy programs. The Deputy Head assured that international students receive English-medium instruction, ensuring smooth academic progress without language barriers. Students also benefit from early exposure to clinical practice, allowing them to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world medical settings from the initial stages of their education.

We also discussed the student life and support system at NCSMU. The university provides comfortable hostel accommodation, separate facilities for boys and girls, a safe campus environment, and dining options that cater to different cultural and dietary needs — including halal and vegetarian food. There are also student-led organizations, cultural events, and extracurricular activities to help international students feel at home.

The Deputy Head expressed appreciation for Makemedico’s role in guiding and mentoring students throughout their academic journey — from counseling and admission to post-arrival support and career guidance. Together, we explored ways to streamline the admission process, assist with visa formalities, and ensure that students adapt quickly to the new environment, both academically and socially.

This meeting reaffirms our commitment to providing students with trusted pathways to global medical education. By partnering with North Caucasian State Medical University, Makemedico is ensuring that aspiring doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals can access affordable, high-quality education in a safe and academically stimulating environment. We look forward to a long-term collaboration that will empower students to achieve their dreams and contribute to the global healthcare community.
