The Department of Medicinal Chemistry is attended by first-year undergraduate students of the Samarkand State Medical University in the faculties of General Medicine, Pediatrics, Dentistry, Administration and Management, Fundamental Medicine, and Higher Nursing.
- Inorganic Chemistry for first-year students of the Faculty of Biotechnology, Engineering, and Pharmacy, as well as Analytical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, and Colloid Chemistry for second- and third-year students.
- Medical Chemistry for first-year students of the Faculty of International Education.
- A course in Chemistry and Bioorganic Chemistry is offered to first-year students of the joint-education, General Medicine, Dentistry, and Pediatrics faculties. Classes are taught in Uzbek, Russian, and English.
The curriculum is based on a credit-modular system. The academic workload, including all types of classroom and extracurricular activities, is set at 120 hours per academic year, with 60 hours per semester equaling 2 credits. One credit equals 30 academic hours of academic workload.
Students in the medical, pediatric, dental, fundamental medicine, administrative management, and advanced nursing programs study the role and functions of chemistry, which forms the basis of medicine, the importance of reactions in the body, and the use of chemical compounds in medicine and pharmacy. Students complete laboratory work independently in the laboratories.
Students in the Faculty of Biotechnology, Engineering, and Pharmacy study the following subjects in inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, and physical and colloid chemistry: composition, reactivity, composition, and quantitative properties of substances used in medicine and pharmacy.
Classes are held in laboratories equipped with modern equipment and employ interactive methods. The department has developed modular programs for all subjects. These modular programs are an excellent aid for student independent study. They contain lecture materials on each topic, practical exercises, laboratory work, virtual laboratories, quizzes on each topic, quizzes, case studies, and picture quizzes. Students can independently access lecture materials, practical exercises, and laboratory work within the modular program at any time using their username and password.
Training is conducted in accordance with the following approved documents for each year and faculty:
– State Standard;
– Qualification requirements;
– Modular program;
The following technical means are available during the training process:
The department has a telecommunications system that allows for the display of videos and presentations, as well as virtual labs using televisions and projectors. Classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards, televisions, and projectors.
