Message from the Dean's Office
The University of Zambia School of Medicine continues to be a prime institution of the Government of the Republic of Zambia in Medical Education. The School was founded in 1968, primarily to train medical doctors. However, due to pressing national needs in health, new programs were introduced to reflect a response by the school to emerging needs in the Health Sector. In 1975, Post Basic Nursing was introduced to train nursing tutors for Nursing Schools in the country.
