History

Jinnah Sindh Medical University was formerly known as Sindh Medical College and was established on April 7, 1973 with the approval of a committee constituted by the Sindh government. In 1973, about 200 students entered the first year of MBBS. Khawaja Moin Ahmed was elected the first principal of the college. The college initially began work on the children’s ward at Jinnah Graduate Medical Center, a military camp since 1865, and moved to Jinnah Graduate Medical Center in 1959. Initially there were only three fields: anatomy (including histology), physiology, and biochemistry. Since then, departments of pathology, pharmacology, forensic medicine, and community medicine have created new disciplines. It also has new museums, laboratories and administrative buildings.
