History

[edit]

The beginning of the university's history dates back to 1921, when it was announced the opening of the Belarusian State University, which at that time included the medical faculty, which was separated in 1930 as an independent educational institution.[citation needed]

In 1930, the Belarusian medical Institute was founded on the basis of the faculty. During the Second World War, from June 1941 to October 1943, the Institute did not function, and then its work resumed in the city of Yaroslavl (Russian Federation). In 1944, the Belarusian medical Institute returned to its former location in the city of Minsk. In 1960, the faculty of dentistry was established.

In 1995, the military medical faculty was established as part of the institute.[citation needed] In September 2011, the faculty of pharmacy was opened.
