The methods that have been mainly used are sociological, medical and statistical. Results. The research found that the absolutely majority of students are from India (81.2%) and about 59.0% of respondents profess Hinduism (59.0%), but the shares of Muslims (21.3%) and Christians (17.6%) are also significant.There are 65.7% males vs. 34.3% of females among the respondents, which is obviously due to religious, cultural and national stereotypes of different countries (p < 0.001).

Almost 86.7% of surveyed first-year-students noted the high level of lectures on the subject "History of Medicine", pointing to their informativeness, accessibility, interesting and illustrative manner of presenting the material.
