    It is a matter of satisfaction to note steady progress of The University of Faisalabad as a prestigious Private Sector institution of higher learning in the Province. I am pleased to learn that the University has developed excellent infrastructure and the state of the art of facilities, especially in the areas of Medical & Allied Health Sciences and Engineering. I have firm belief that the role of higher education institutions offering technical, vocational and professional education alongside research activities is the pivotal for the progress of a country and prosperity of its people. It is heartening to note that the University is very much alive to the needs of higher education in the country and is contributing significantly for the uplift of standards of education by equipping its students with requisite knowledge base and skill set.

    I am particularly glad to know that the University is placing due emphasis on applied research and promoting technical skills at undergraduate and graduate levels. The role of its Office of Research, Innovation and Commercialization (ORIC) in ensuring a close academia-industry linkage for undertaking research initiatives on industry base problems is commendable.

    I would like to appreciate the Rector, Faculty and Management of the University for their diligent efforts and missionary approach. I am confident that the University will continue its journey of success and becomes one of the best higher education Institutions in this part of the world.

    I feel glad to see that University Medical and Dental College, established in 2003,has progressively transformed into a centre of excellence in medical and dental education.
    It has, no doubt, made a fast paced progress in a short span of time. Establishing faculties of MBBS and BDS is not what UMDC confi ned itself to. It has now gone that extra mile that not many medical institutes take initiative for it has ventured for research in the fi eld of medical science and dentistry by off ering MPhil programmes in several of its disciplines.

    Being a constituent college of The University of Faisalabad a W4 category University held the 3rd Position amongst its category in HEC ranking 2014, UMDC is affi liated with the University of Health Sciences (UHS) Lahore. This College is known for its stateof-the-art infrastructure, facilities and highly qualifi ed, experienced and dedicated teaching faculty.

    Our students have been regularly securing top positions in various professional examinations conducted by UHS. We are proud to see that our alumni are serving in various leading hospitals and organizations both in the public and private sectors. It is a matter of great satisfaction for me to see that the 600 bedded Madinah Teaching Hospital (MTH) integral to the UMDC is continuously and regularly upgrading its equipment and facilities and, rendering free specialist medical and dental services to the ailing humanity, specially the under privileged cross section of the society. MTH has the unique distinction of being the only teaching hospital in the private sector that is rendering these services which include consultancy, diagnosis, medicines, hospitalization, surgery etc free of cost.

    UMDC is proudly contributing towards empowerment of the youth towards a bright future, and progress and prosperity of the country in the field of Medical and Health Sciences.It is registered with Publics Health Commission (PHC). MTH has been also awarded ‘Corporate Social Responsibility Award 2015 and achieved ISO 9001: 2008 Certifi cation.

    A Medical College imbibes the best and the brightest minds to learn the science of medicine and public health and the art of compassionate care. As one of the affi liated colleges of the University of Health Sciences (UHS) Lahore, University Medical and Dental College (UMDC) Faisalabad, is endeavoring to advance biomedical knowledge and human healing through modern educational methods. UHS vision in a rapidly changing era of health care reforms is to educate medical leaders in patient-centered, science-driven, team-based, high-value health care. An appropriate selective admissions process, inter-professional team learning and a student centered, fl exible, innovative curriculum make our graduate accepted within the country and abroad.

    Medical college such as UMDC need to seek out applicants who are passionate about the underserved, implement programmes and curricula that will nurture those passions, and graduate students who understand how to partner with communities to achieve better health especially in the nature infl icted and man infl icted disasters like earthquakes, floods, avalanches, dengue out breaks, smallpox eradication and tuberculosis resurrection.

    I am sure that this college will select each new entering class with the intent of ensuring that it will train tomorrow’s medical leaders, who will be prepared to practice as physicians and specialists to meet the needs of the public.
