A Residency in Dermatovenerology provides doctors exhaustive knowledge in their specialty. This excellent education will foster the development of Dermatovenerology as a discipline, and the clinical, scientific and human competences of each graduate completing the Residency program.
A Residency in Dermatovenerology is designed to prepare qualified, trained medical specialists in dermatology. They will have the ability to work autonomously in a specialized area of medicine, including high-technology medical care. The education will provide trainees with an excellent and broad background in fundamental medical science and with the professional, technical and clinical skills necessary in their field. The trainees will also acquire in-depth knowledge of related disciplines.
Residents and faculty meet two times a month to review the latest clinical and basic science research articles, gain insight into ongoing research activities within the department, and look for answers to clinical questions. Topics include prominent medical dermatology, pediatric dermatology, dermatologic surgery, and laser/cosmetics topics, as well as relevant articles from outside dermatology.
Each resident has a theme for their clinical research work and reports their results four times a year. Several times a year, residents review interesting cases from the consultation services to their peers. Complex medical cases are presented with a pathology review.
Tuition fees are U.S. $10,000 per year.
Note! Selection in the Residency Program occurs on a competitive basis and based on the results of a final interview. For enrollment you have to submit both original and notarized Russian translations of the required documents to the NSU Admission Office.
Residency graduates are highly qualified professionals who can work as dermatovenerology specialists in public or private medical institutions, as well as successfully conduct scientific research.
This Medical residency program was incredibly intensive, full of lectures and interdisciplinary seminars that required preliminary preparation in the form of presentations on individual themes and clinical cases. These activities provided the perfect opportunity to learn something new and see our specialization from another angle. Certainly, we went through a lot of work and self-improvement, however, seeing the examples of the program coordinators as well as their ability to find an approach to any patient and give wonderful lectures and seminars made us want to work even harder. Thanks to the support of the University and program coordinators I was able to present the results of my graduate work with presentations at forums and congresses in Russia and abroad. Moreover, I had the unique chance to participate in the International Summer Academy of Practical Dermatology in Munich, the Conference for young dermatologists in Moscow, and a course on pediatric dermatology in Barcelona. The most important this is that one should choose the specialization based on his/her own interests because it is always great to work in the field you like.
