Events

From December 23, 2025, to January 14, 2026, the Republican New Year's charity event for the elderly, "From the Bottom of My Heart," will be held across all regions of our country.

VSMU, of course, did not remain indifferent to this noble and vital cause. On December 23, veterans—many of whom dedicated numerous years of their lives to working at our university—gathered at the university café "Locus Bonus." Many of these individuals remember the challenging years of the Great Patriotic War and the arduous post-war reconstruction of the country. A beautiful table was set, a festive program prepared by the student club, and congratulations along with favorite songs were played...

In the team competition among staff, the first place was awarded to the team of the Department of Evidence-Based Medicine, the second place to the team of the VSMU Rector's Office, and the third place to the Department of Therapeutic Dentistry.

Ivan Zhiltsov secured first place in the men's individual championship, Egor Ilyin took second place, and Alexey Pogotsky finished third place.

In the women's individual competition, Ekaterina Piraner claimed first place, Alla Pogotskaya took second place, and Anastasia Belkovskaya secured third place.

On December 23, participants of the project "Family and Spiritual and Moral Traditions of Belarus," within the framework of the Republican contest "Youth of Belarus for Life, Morality, and Family Values," familiarized the 2nd-year students of the Sri Lankan of the Overseas Students Training Faculty with the local history research conducted and the history of the memorial sign installed on the territory of VSMU, initiated by the university leadership. One of the goals of the project is to familiarize students with Belarusian traditions and to foster interest in the country's historical and cultural heritage.

On December 23, on the eve of the New Year, the presentation of the Vitebsk State Order of Peoples' Friendship Medical University (VSMU) calendar for 2026 took place at VSMU. The calendar features illustrations created by students.

The calendar includes works such as "Christmas Star," "Winter Forest," "Tenderness," "Unexpected Meeting," "Spring Accord," and others. These creative works reflect themes of love for the Motherland, the Belarusian language, poetry, and national culture. Many of the authors are organizers of personal exhibitions and winners of international and national competitions.
