The academic process is being carried out in an indispensable relation with scientific research, qualitative medical assistance to population, promotion of medical and pharmaceutical breakthroughs.
The University was founded in 1945 on the basis of a medical establishment from Sankt-Petersbourg with old and respected traditions, evacuated during the World War II in Kislovodsk, and ultimately transferred to Chisinau. During the 58 years of its activity the university has prepared over 32 thousand doctors and pharmacists.
The academic potential of the SMPhU oriented to the highest professionalism and interacted with knowledge of foreign languages and high technologies constitutes cc. 1000 staff, including 15 academicians and corresponding members of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Moldova, honorary members of academies of other countries, 143 professors and 547 PhDs in medicine, 21 Laureates of the State Prize in the field of science and technique, who work within 82 departments, 10 courses and 14 scientific laboratories.

"...I will devote all my knowledge and efforts to give medical assistance and improve health of the humans, prevent and treat diseases, work with assiduity for the sake of humanity..." – are the words of the Oath of the Doctor pronounced yearly by 700 graduates from Moldova and other 26 countries who are studying at the university. The words are to be respected sacredly all along the professional activity. The diploma of undergraduate studies of our graduates is recognized internationally.

In order to pursue postgraduate training in other European countries, USA, Canada, Australia, within the university there is a consulting centre, ‘Manshell-Lit’ which gives assistance to the students and young specialists as to find possibilities to get familiar with medical systems and specific features of the systems in Great Britain and USA.
I am sure that those who aspire to become doctors or pharmacists, the professions requiring total commitment and supreme moral responsibility, are strongly prepared to pass the admission examinations and convinced to pursue their studies at our university.
The successful admission will give a chance to enter a prestigious school, recognized nationally and internationally for the values produced in the field of education, medical science, and spiritual culture in general. Keeping the old traditions with respect, our university goes, at the same time, hand by hand with our reality, thus, having a permanent interchange with other universities.

If you are optimist, if you are fond of life in all its manifestations, if difficulties do not scare you, if you are ready to help people in their suffering and pain, then do not be insure, come to study at our University.
With great pleasure I am honoured to invite you, my dear friend, to have a virtual tour around the State Medical and Pharmaceutical University “Nicolae Testemitanu”.
