Malcom X once said, "Education is our passport to the
future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for
it, today".
I would like to greet you from Ameer-ud-Din Medical College
/ Postgraduate Medical Institute, affiliated with Lahore
General Hospital. It is an honour for me to introduce this
college to you as Principal. When I look back on the road we
have traveled, the lives we have touched, and people who
have served and benefited from this institution, it gives me
motivation to move further and look forward with high hopes
for the future.
Since its inception, this college has been envisioned an
educational model, which focused initially on just
postgraduate education. However, it was given opportunity to
work with different undergrad colleges. Now we have our own
Medical college, which is focused on the holistic
development of students, an education that goes beyond
classroom learning to encompass character building
attitudes, clinical skills and a competitive spirit, with an
ever enthusiastic teaching faculty willing to teach and
learn at the same time. Our teaching has already moved to
student centered. Increasing bed strength, new department
development and new buildings are adding to this colour of
diversity.
This College has always had a strong focus on academics, a
fact that is reflected in the performance of our students in
the University examinations. We are en-route to have our own
sports facilities, and till that time, providing
co-curricular activities to our students through different
facilities in public sector. Also, the college actively
helps nurture the latent potential in our students. The
laurels who romped home at different competitions speak
volumes about the talents in our students.
Our students, faculty, serving staff and patients are our
priority. We are confident to face the challenges of an
increasingly competitive world. Moreover, our students are
emerging as sensitive individuals ready to contribute in a
healthy society.
Yes, at Ameer-ud-Din Medical College, we believe in what
Epictetus said: "Only the educated are free".
