Mission Statement |
Founding Principal
Prof. K. Zaki Hasan (1927-2007) |
The decision taken by the Trust to establish a new medical college is based on
its desire to raise the standards of medical education in Pakistan. Conscious
that a high level of professional competence has to be attained by medical
students, the Trust has planned a system of instruction in which the emphasis is
on interactive, small group tutorials, problem based and community based
learning relevant to our particular culture.
As the world is shrinking rapidly, Jinnah Medical & Dental College students are
encouraged to keep abreast of the latest developments in the medical sciences.
Other vital aspects of education, too often ignored by medical educationists,
are also emphasized. These include communication skills, language skills and
courses in humanities. As part of the curriculum, students will be trained to
use computers as well as to write and speak effectively, giving them the
confidence to pursue graduate studies and participate effectively in seminars
and conferences at the national and international level. |

Admission procedures are stringent because the aim is to ensure that students
who graduate from Jinnah Medical & Dental College will be important members of
society as care providers in the health services. They will have necessary
management skills and the ability to plan for self-improvement. Jinnah Medical
and Dental College graduates will be confident medical practitioners, decision
makers and care providers. They will be able to attain a high level of advanced
learning in any field of specialization, anywhere in the world. |

|
The strategy for fulfilling this Mission is based on student-teacher
interaction, community-based instruction, and further support in the form of a
good library, audio-visual aids, skills laboratory, computer-assisted learning
and an active humanities department. |
