MBBS in Russia — course structure

The MBBS programme (called "Lechebnoe Delo" / General Medicine in the Russian system) typically runs 6 years, combining theoretical coursework with clinical training and a mandatory internship year. Most partner universities offer the full programme in English; some require a preparatory year with Russian language training for students who choose the Russian-taught track.

Who this is for

• Students who did not secure a seat in their home country due to limited government seats or high private college fees.
• Students looking for an internationally recognised medical degree at an affordable cost.
• Students who want to start their medical education without a mandatory entrance exam.
