The Medical Academy named after S. I. Georgievsky of Vernadsky CFU (Ukrainian: Кримський державний медичний університет ім.
С. І. Георгієвського; Crimean Tatar: Qırım Devlet Üniversitesi S. Georgiyevski) is the institution of higher medical education situated in Simferopol (Autonomous Republic of Crimea).
Due to development of Crimea as a health resort, it was decided in 1930 to organize higher medical school here.
The solemn opening of the Crimean Medical Institute (which consisted of one treatment-and-prophylactic faculty only) took place on 1 April 1931.
In the time of the German invasion of the Soviet Union, the university continued working in evacuation (at first in Armavir, then in Jambul, Orjonikidze, Baku, Krasnovodsk, Kyzylorda).
Since 1961 the institute begins preparation of medical shots for the countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America.
