History

Due to the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, in August 1941, the Dnepropetrovsk Pharmaceutical Institute with a big part of its material base was evacuated to Pyatigorsk. At the end of April 1942, the staff was expanded by a group of teachers and students of the Leningrad Pharmaceutical and 2nd Leningrad Medical Institutes.[2] In March 1943, the Pyatigorsk Pharmaceutical Institute was organized on the basis of evacuated Dnepropetrovsk and Leningrad universities.[3]

Since 1952, the systematic development of the material base of the Institute began when its laboratory building was expanded. In 1954, advanced training courses for pharmacy managers were organized here. In 1972, a new PPI academic building was opened.[2]

In 1994, the Institute achieved the status of academy — the Pyatigorsk State Pharmaceutical Academy. In 2012, the academy was renamed again (to the Pyatigorsk Medical and Pharmaceutical Institute) and joined the Volgograd State Medical University as a branch.[2]
