Abstract: By any measure, semisimple modules form one of the most important classes of modules and play a distinguished role in the module theory and its applications. One of the most fundamental results in this area is the Wedderburn-Artin theorem. In this paper, we establish natural generalizations of semisimple modules and give a generalization of the Wedderburn-Artin theorem. We study modules in which every submodule is isomorphic to a direct summand and name them {it virtually semisimple modules}. A module RM is called {it completely virtually semisimple} if each submodules of M is a virtually semisimple module. A ring R is then called {it left} ({it completely}) {it virtually semisimple} if RR is a left (compleatly) virtually semisimple R-module. Among other things, we give several characterizations of left (completely) virtually semisimple rings. For instance, it is shown that a ring R is left completely virtually semisimple if and only if Rcongprodi=1kMni(Di) where k,n1,...,nkinBbbN and each Di is a principal left ideal domain. Moreover, the integers k,n1,...,nk and the principal left ideal domains D1,...,Dk are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by R.
