PRMU told about the Department of International Cooperation and the Faculty of International Medical Education
I would like to recall a brief history of the department, which has made a significant contribution to the training of highly qualified foreign specialists in the field of medicine, education and science, and formed a positive image of our university and the country abroad over the 30 years of the Faculty's existence.
FIME is one of the oldest structural divisions of the University, the first 10 foreign students from India and Syria came to study here back in December 1991. As an independent fullfledged Faculty, the division was finally formed in 1992, and Professor Strongin was appointed the first dean. His deputy was M.M. Khilov. Since 2007, the duties of the dean were performed by Professor Erlykina. In order to study the potential market of educational services, the Department of International Marketing was established in the same year, headed by Associate Professor Zagainov. Since 2018, the Dean of the FIME is I.G. Stelnikova.
In comparison to the Department of International Marketing, the IAD is a new structure that has become a response to the dynamic demands of the time in the obvious need to expand international cooperation.
A modern world-class university is impossible without intensive international cooperation and integration into the global educational and research space. Therefore, the development of bilateral and multilateral international relations, educational and scientific projects is one of the priorities of PRMU. The Department of International Cooperation coordinates the complex of international relations of the University.
