History

Entrance of the Faculty of Medicine, 1970s

Up to the beginning of the 1980s, Afghan Medical Schools were under Kabul University and the Ministry of Education; however, after Russian occupation, all Medical Schools came under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Public Health and later on the Ministry of Higher Education.

1996-2001

During the days of the Taliban, women were not allowed to study medicine at Kabul Medical University, not even under the cover of the burka.[1]

2001-2021

The University of Manitoba's medical school along with University of Nebraska Medical Center helped the Kabul Medical University rebuild its library after the war. University of Nebraska Medical Center provided KMU with scholarships for KMU lectures and students as well as provided it with up-to-date medical technology and research based institutions like Cardiac Research Center. Manitoba put together a basic collection of 672 medical textbooks.[4]

In 2007 Kabul Medical University cooperated with the King Edward Medical University of Lahore Pakistan in training students.[5] Kabul Medical University is in one of Afghanistan's high ranking universities.[6]

Out of 460 students of Kabul Medical University 90 were Afghanistan's first group of female graduates after the fall of Taliban. They studied for dentistry and paediatric.[7]
