The teaching of Medicine and Dentistry has to accomodate the rapid evoluion in sicnece as well as the wide range of applications to which the technology is appied.

The University College of Medicine & Dentistry has first-rate teaching facilities with staff chosen for their expertise and diversity of teaching and research interests. We are a compact College, with an emphasis on teaching quality. Students and staff get to know each other well through small group tutorials, laboratory sessions, informal contact discussion and problem based learning. All our students spend a substantial part of their time working on individual or group projects supervised by one of our research teams. New technologies are being rapidly introduced replacing the existing ones. This change and revolution of the discipline has let to the introduction of new courses, and recision and enhancement of existing courses according to Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) and Higher Education Commission (HEC) recommendations.

Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)

Medicine is a subject with a very high profile and demand for the study programme is very high within Pakistan, as well as around the world. But this high demand does not come with ease of study, as the degree programme is very demanding, and entrants should be prepared to work very hard to achieve this goal. The MBBS degree is long and demanding not only academically, but physically as well as emotionally.

Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) determines the general form and content of the degree and sets the standard a medical student should reach upn graduation. Therefore all Pakistani medical degree programmes are similar, but the structure and methods by which individual medical schools deliver knoweldge and experience vary.
