geMedicine and Applied BiosciencesMedicineMedicine is the art and science of healing. It encompasses a range of healthcare practices to maintain and restore health through prevention and treatment. Contemporary medicine includes health science, bio-medical research and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically, through medication, surgery or some other form of therapy. Medicine is concerned with the training of knowledgeable, caring, competent and skilful professionals to look after the health of the humankind and treat the diseases it falls prey to.

The medical curriculum followed at Army Medical College consists of learning about the science of the human body in health and disease (pre-clinical years) and then a period of applying that knowledge during an interaction with patients (clinical years). The unique programmes of the College lay emphasis on the art of effective communication with patients. Teaching is built on inter-disciplinary units of study and tasks that focus on clinical cases and conditions. There is a distinct emphasis on developing problem-solving skills through clinical reasoning. Students receive supervised study projects and assessments at each stage of learning. These projects help students explore and monitor their attitudes as future professionals and utilisation of acquired knowledge.

The society also benefited people outside the college by giving 15% of the donations to the children fighting with thalassemia. In addition, 50 pints were issued to the children in Thalassemia Ward on the World Thalassemia Day.

Programme DescriptionThis 4-year degree programme meets the requirements of the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council. This specifically designed programme aims at exposing the students to real life problems, including radical art in clinical dental practice. The students are provided with a solid foundation in basic principles of medicine, diagnostics and surgical techniques to meet the challenges of the future in the field of dentistry.

Research FacilitiesResearch facilities in the domains of periodontology, prosthodontics, operative dentistry, oral/maxillofacial surgery and orthodontics are available for students.

Career OpportunitiesCareer opportunities include commissioning in Pakistan Army as Captain (for those who choose to join the Army Dental Corps and get selected) and appointment as House Physician/Surgeon for one year in AFID as well as the opportunity to pursue a career in orthodontics, periodontics, pedodontics and preventive dentistry, prosthodontics, operative dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Amcolians Alumni Association (AAA)The AAA, an academic and research body, has been constituted for the graduates of the College under the patronage of the Principal, with the President of Pakistan as its Patron-in-Chief. This body has been formed to place Pakistan on the international map in the fields of health, medical education and research.

geMPhil and PhD in Medical Sciences

IntroductionPostgraduate training is imparted in all relevant subjects of the specialty, under the direct supervision of qualified and experienced supervisors. The College has an impressive legacy of imparting high quality postgraduate training. An opportunity to apply the learnt knowledge is provided by delivering lectures and facilitating the publication of research projects.

SpecialisationsMPhil in Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, Chemical Pathology, Haematology, Histopathology and Microbiology, Community Medicine and Science of Dental MaterialsPhD in Anatomy, Biochemistry, Physiology, Pharmacology, Chemical Pathology, Molecular MedicineFCPS in Physiology, Biochemistry, Anatomy, Chemical Pathology and Community Medicine

Research FacilitiesAlong with facilities mentioned in Research and Development section, the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology has an autopsy section, a biological laboratory and a museum. The Pathology Department has two labs, a museum and a histopathology section. The histopathology section deals with cases from attached teaching hospitals. To keep pace with the modern trends in diagnostic medicine, the Department has introduced fine needle aspiration cytology. The Community Medicine Department has an impressive museum for coaching the students. The teaching is supplemented by visits to vaccination centres, family planning centres, infectious diseases hospitals, drug addiction centres, institutes of nuclear medicine, community water supply and sewerage disposal plants.

Career OpportunitiesThe postgraduate fellows can assume the noble profession of education. They can also pursue their careers as postdoctoral research fellows in different research laboratories and organisations within or outside the country.
