Background. Research on the state of physical activity level of medical faculty students is especially important because of their future roles as doctors and other professionals associated with health.

Material and methods. The study was conducted in 2015 among 646 students of the Medical University in Ternopil, Ukraine, with the use of the extended version of The International Physical Activity Questionnaire.

Results. A high level of physical activity of students with significantly higher values among men than women have been shown. No significant relationships in physical activity levels of students in relation to the place of origin and place of residence have been demonstrated.

Conclusions The physical activity programmes at universities should take into account gender and fields of study.
