History
Just in over 50 years since the first national doctors graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of the National University of Mongolia in 1947, a whole system of medical education has been established to educate and retrain doctors and medical practitioners of the country. During this short period of time, the faculty had expanded to the establishment of Mongolian National University of Medical Science (MNUMS) and increasing its teaching facilities, number of faculties and professors so far. Today, it became an inexhaustible source of knowledge and the Center for national medical education and research. The National University of Mongolia has established on October 5, 1942, with three faculties, one of which was a medical department. The Department of Dermatology has established on April 26, 1950, by the Order No.16 of the Director of the National University of Mongolia and it laid the foundation for the further development of this sector, and educational base for medical students and dermatologists, and improvement of the patient care, dermatology treatment, and research practice. The Head of the First Department of Dermatology was a Soviet specialist and associate professor Boris Alexeivich Zenin. The Head of the medical department A.M. Sobolev taught dermatology to medical students the first time, between academic years of 1945 – 1946. While teaching the subject of dermatology, A.M.Sobolev developed textbooks in dermatology, which translated into Mongolian by professors T. Shagdarsuren and Ch. Dolgor. Ch.Dolgor, People’s Doctor of Mongolia, Honored Doctor, and Professor, became the head of the department in 1958 and administrated the Department of Our National Specialists. In 1958, Karp Artemovich Serpyan worked as a consultant teacher (for a year) in the department and Professor Ts. Nyamdorj was accompanying as a teaching practitioner.
