Medical University in Krasnodar is structured into multiple educational divisions
Kuban State Medical University, a prestigious institution with a history dating back to the 1920s, has announced plans for a major overhaul in its organizational structure. The changes, set to take effect from September 1, 2025, aim to focus on various specialties and will see the university transform from a faculty-based structure into an institute-based system.
The new structure will consist of five institutes: the Institute of Clinical Medicine, the Institute of Dentistry, the Institute of Psychology and Communication, the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education, and the Institute of Continuous Education.
The Institute of Clinical Medicine will combine training in General Medicine and Pediatrics specialties, while the diplomas of graduates will still indicate their specific area of expertise. This change is expected to provide a more focused and streamlined approach to medical education.
The Pharmaceutical faculty and the Medical-Preventive faculty are also planned to be transformed into institutes in the future, reflecting the university's commitment to the advancement of all medical fields.
The university has a rich history of producing skilled medical professionals. During the Great Patriotic War, it continued training medical personnel, graduating 847 specialists who went on to contribute to ensuring medical care in the rear.

It's worth noting that the faculty structure of the university significantly expanded in 1963 with the addition of dental, pediatric, medical-preventive, and pharmaceutical faculties.

While specific details about the planned changes are not yet widely available, it is advised that interested parties consult official announcements or the university's communications directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information. The current structure of the educational programs will remain the same, with the aim of maintaining the high standards of education that Kuban State Medical University is known for.
The new organizational structure of Kuban State Medical University will include an Institute of Continuous Education, dedicated to life-long learning and self-development in the field of medicine.
With the planned transformation of the Pharmaceutical and Medical-Preventive faculties into institutes, the university continues to prioritize education-and-self-development and learning across all medical fields.
