UNIVERSITY MEDICAL & DENTAL COLLEGE
Introduction:
Medical education in Pakistan, since independence has been the domain of public sector, changing trends in medical education around the world and immense pressure of quality treatment has paved way for private sector to play its part in the field. Faisalabad being the industrial capital of the country had only one medical college and only two major hospitals to cater to the healthcare and educational needs of over 8 million people.
Madina foundation, following the vision of its founder Chairman (Late) Mian Mohammed Saleem ‘Industry, Education & Charity’, established University Medical College, in 2003 to fill this vacuum in the medical education for the city of Faisalabad. Since beginning this college has strived hard and under the able, dynamic leadership and guidance of our present chairman, Mian Mohammed Hanif, has achieved unique honors and success. Another distinct feature of the college is being a Medical College for girls only. The college has hired the services of eminent medical professionals from around the country to impart quality education to students and a very efficient health care delivery system to the community.
ALHAMDULILLAH, The efforts and standing of the college has been duly appreciated by relevant authorities. Pakistan Medical & Dental Council has granted recognition to the University Medical College. The Health Department, Govt. of Punjab has also accredited this College. The College is affiliated to University of Health Sciences, Lahore. It is also in the list of HEC and WHO list of accredited Medical Instituions. Keeping in view the present teaching and training facilities University Medical College has been granted permission to induct 100 students per year by PMDC. First batch of MBBS students will InshaAllah pass out from UHS this year and shall be awarded MBBS degree by University of Health Sciences, Lahore.
