The necessity of medical education institution at a regional and international level was felt immensely. As a newly emerging discipline, medical education is getting popularity day by day. In the modern era of Evidence Based Medical (EBM), personal dogmas and deliberation are not enough to effectively deliver huge responsibility of imparting medical education.

Therefore, education theories along with documented research literature are needed to improve the quality of medical education. Despite staying behind the First World, we are aware of our local challenges and it is expected that this institute will not only prove to be a leader within the Dow University of Health Sciences setting but will also be a trend-setter for the whole region to redirect medical education activities on the right track.
