The Saint-Petersburg State Medical Academy Today

At present the Mechnokov St.-Petersburg State Medical Academy is one of the largest educational and curative centers in the city. It trains epidemiologists, microbiologists, family doctors, physician-hygienists, therapeutists, surgeons, gynecologists, senior nurses and other specialists for preventive and curative medicine.

The course of training at the Academy is five or six years long. At the Nursing Faculty it is 5 years and at other faculties it is 6 years. The first and second year students study preclinical subjects such as anatomy, physiology, histology, biology, microbiology, physics, chemistry, Latin and foreign languages. They also study some social subjects among which are history, philosophy and economics. Senior students study clinical subjects such as therapy, surgery, gynecology, nervous and infectious diseases, endocrinology, psychiatry, urology, oncology, otorhinolaryngology, ophthalmology, traumatology, principles of hygiene and sanitation, etc. Most of these subjects are necessary for the future physician-practitioners, physician-hygienists, family physicians, and senior nurses. That is why it is necessary to attend all the lectures and practical classes.

All senior students have patients and treat them under the guidance of experienced doctors. Often they are present at different operations and make daily rounds of wards with doctors in charge.

There are more than fifty departments in the Academy, such as the department of Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, Surgery, Neurology, Occupational Diseases, Cardiology, General Hygiene, Hygiene of Nutrition, Hygiene of Children and Adolescents, etc.

Each department has its head, professor or assistant professor, who is responsible for the work of the department. The head of the Academy is the rector. He is responsible for the work of the Academy in general. There are two pro-rectors, pro-rector for research work and pro-rector for academic work. A dean is the head of a faculty. He is responsible for the work of the faculty and helps students in their studies.

Many of the departments in the Academy are well equipped with modern medical equipment.

After the course of training students get diplomas of physician-hygienists, general practitioners, family physicians and senior nurses.
