Astrakhan State Medical University
The grand opening of the University was held on November 9, 1918. More than 2000 students were enrolled in the first course of the University. Two faculties (natural and historical-philological) began their first academic year. Due to the great need for medical personnel and the desire of young people to master the profession of a doctor by the decision of the University Council, a reception was started in this specialty. In the 1918-1919 school year, future physicians studied with students of the natural faculty.
