In 1916, the first university in the Urals opened in Perm, which marked the beginning of medical education in this region, since one university faculty was a physics and mathematics department with a department of medicine, from which the medical academy gradually grew. Perm land at that time really needed such specialists. Medical universities were absent. That is why forty-three percent of applicants in the opening year were admitted to the medical department. The following year, a separate medical faculty was organized, and in 1931 the Perm Medical Institute.
Start
First, students were taught at faculty departments at the university, and when the medical institute was formed, the departments of surgery, therapy, and otolaryngology were opened. Students have already been recruited to seven faculties: sanitary-hygienic, medical-prophylactic, protection of infancy and motherhood, labor faculty, training paramedics, top medical specialists and chemical and pharmaceutical. In the process, the requirements changed, so some faculties were replaced by new ones, others were reorganized.
All medical universities in the country have gone through numerous transformations. The time was difficult but interesting. Many scientists worked in Perm only temporarily, so the issue of training local personnel, which quickly and successfully resolved, came up close. The Perm State Medical Academy has always been famous for highly qualified scientists, who also had vast experience in both educational and clinical research work in science. Here the best traditions of Soviet medicine were developed and supported.
Development
In the thirties, the institute opened a research sector, where more than one hundred and fifty topics immediately began to be developed. The students themselves conducted active work there: separate circles were organized at the departments, and reports were read. In 1937, the Student Scientific Society (SSS) was opened to develop individual topics and help teachers conduct scientific and research work.
Later, the Medical Academy was also proud of such student independence. The Perm region has finally begun to receive highly qualified personnel trained by the institute. By the fortieth year, the Perm Medical Institute had become a significant center for research and quality medical education, capable of solving problems at the country level.
War years
Since the summer of 1941, the institute had to carry on its shoulders very responsible and enormous in importance loads. In addition to preparing doctors for the front, it was necessary to organize the evacuation of hospitals, to provide qualified assistance to the wounded and the population. And this is in the context of the fact that most of the teachers, staff and students voluntarily went to the front.
Despite the very difficult conditions, the medical faculty continued to train military doctors: in 1941, seven hundred and thirty of them graduated, and more than a thousand and a half during the war years. The war took away many teachers and students forever, their memory was always honored by the medical academy.
Perm medicine continued to live thanks to the efforts and dedication of the Institute staff.
Heyday
The country rebelled from ruins, rebuilt, people gradually got used to a peaceful life. As the state developed, the requirements for medical specialists also increased. There are opportunities to increase the level of training of students of medical universities. The institute has actively begun the formation of scientific and practical schools in the main areas - therapeutic, surgical, obstetrics, and pediatrics. In the sixties and seventies, the university really flourished: new buildings and dormitories, medical institutions, which became the basis for student practice, were built. Throughout the country, health care has developed at a tremendous pace.
At the institute, the baton of achievements of which was accepted by the Perm State Medical Academy, excellent specialists with high degrees and ranks were educated. At the same time, the Central Scientific Research Laboratory (Central Research Laboratory) was organized, equipped with excellent equipment - the most modern of those times. Due to this, comprehensive studies began, in which various departments of the institute participated, as well as other universities and research institutes were involved.
Experience accumulation
In the institute's scientific environment, eleven directions were identified. All the creative potential of employees was directed to the implementation of industry programs, both union and republican, and, of course, urgent problems of the city of Perm and the region were solved. Institute scientists began to travel to international forums, expanding ties with colleagues abroad. The mid-seventies is interesting because a patent-licensing group appeared at the institute, and before planning each scientific research, a mandatory information search was carried out.
Thus began a landmark work - rationalization and inventive. Of course, always, at every stage of development, various problems and difficulties, peculiarities and requirements arose, but there was no generation of Perm medical scientists who could not overcome the circumstances. All employees of the institute were united by dedication. Even in the most difficult conditions with high responsibility, the Medical Academy worked selflessly. Not without reason Perm land is proud of this higher educational institution.
Rename
Many names sounded for the first time in the audience of the institute, made up the pride and honor of domestic medicine. The traditions of the past, when the university was able to survive in the most difficult times for the country, are sacredly honored by scientists who were brought up by the Perm State Medical Academy.
From the accumulated experience, the main thing passes into each new generation, as happened at all times. The color of Russian medicine is still being cultivated here. In 1994, instead of the Perm Medical Institute, the university received another proud name - above the rank - Wagner Perm Medical Academy.
Today
Today, scientists of the university are actively working on scientific problems that are relevant for healthcare both in Perm and the region, and throughout the Russian Federation - in pediatrics, cardiology, dentistry, neurology, epidemiology and all other areas. Since 2014, the university has been in a different status, now it is the Perm State Medical University named after academician E.A. Wagner.

Russia has not become impoverished by outstanding scientists and young talents. Nearly ninety percent of university teachers have a degree! This is one of the best indicators among universities in the country.

Why is this institution that implements national health projects in the education of the Perm Territory? Because it allows him to do modern technical equipment.
