Study MBBS at Chelyabinsk State University
Chelyabinsk, Russia · Established 1976
Quick Overview
Chelyabinsk State University is a classical university in the Ural city of Chelyabinsk. Its Faculty of Fundamental Medicine teaches three specialist degrees - Medical Biochemistry, Medical Biophysics and Medical Cybernetics (codes 30.05.01-03 on its own admissions site) - and not 31.05.01 General Medicine, the Russian degree that licenses a physician. On that basis it is not a route to MBBS, FMGE or Indian medical registration, and we do not place students here.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about MBBS at Chelyabinsk State University
"NMC approved" is not a status that exists - NMC approves no foreign university. The problem here is more basic. Chelyabinsk State University's Faculty of Fundamental Medicine offers three specialist degrees and its own admissions site lists them by code: 30.05.01 Medical Biochemistry, 30.05.02 Medical Biophysics and 30.05.03 Medical Cybernetics. It does not offer 31.05.01 Lechebnoe delo (General Medicine), which is the Russian primary medical degree that licenses a graduate to practise as a physician. FMGL-2021 requires exactly that: a qualification that licenses you to practise medicine in the country of study. A 30.05.xx biomedical specialist degree does not, so it is not a route to FMGE and Indian registration. The university also has no separate listing in the World Directory of Medical Schools.
