Tashkent State Medical University (TSMU), Uzbekistan

Tashkent State Medical University is a public medical institution located in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. The university was formed in 2025 by combining three established institutions: Tashkent Medical Academy, Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute and Tashkent State Dental Institute. Although the present university dates from 2025, its constituent institutions have a longer history of medical education.

The university's academic focus includes the training of future doctors and other healthcare professionals. General Medicine is a major programme, alongside fields such as dentistry and paediatrics. The General Medicine programme is listed as a six-year course, and the institution's published information identifies English, Russian and Uzbek as languages of instruction. Prospective international students should confirm the language used for every stage of their specific programme, especially clinical rotations.

The university is situated on Farobiy Street in Tashkent. Its location in the country's capital offers access to a major urban healthcare environment, although students should independently verify the hospitals and clinical facilities assigned to their course. Practical clinical experience is an essential component of medical education and should be evaluated alongside tuition fees and classroom facilities.

For international applicants, admission procedures may involve academic-document verification, an interview and official admission documentation. The university has previously instructed international applicants to follow its official announcements and obtain admission letters through the authorised university process. Students should not travel on the basis of an unofficial offer letter or a third-party promise.

Indian students must take additional care before enrolling. They should confirm that their intended programme and campus comply with current NMC rules, including requirements for course duration, clinical training, internship and eligibility for medical registration in India. They should also obtain written confirmation of the complete fee structure, accommodation costs, refund policy and medium of instruction.
