The Donetsk National Medical University (abbr. DNMU, Ukrainian: Донецький національний медичний університет) is one of the largest medical state-sponsored universities in Ukraine and the former USSR. The university is considered one of the best medical schools in Ukraine. Originally located in Donetsk, it was relocated to Kropyvnytskyi and Mariupol in 2014 due to the War in Donbas.
