About International Medical University
In 1992, Malaysia was facing a serious shortage of doctors. Dr Kamal Salih, a visionary, and Dr Mei Ling
Young, a social scientist with a strong interest in development, hit on a brilliant, simple idea – if young
Malaysian students could not go out into the world to get the medical education they wanted and deserved,
they would bring it to them. And so the idea for the International Medical College (IMC) was born. The
college was officially launched on 13 April 1992 by the then Education Minister, YB Datuk Amar Dr Sulaiman
Haji Daud, demonstrating the full support of the Malaysian Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health.
Changing the landscape of medical education, IMC introduced the world’s first unique curriculum model that
allow medical students to spend the first 5 semesters at the IMC in Kuala Lumpur, before moving to one of
the five leading Partner Medical Schools (PMS) around the world.

for medicine, which is the educational focus of the University. The colour white represents
integrity. The globe stands for international connections: the IMU as a member of the
International Medical Consortium, both in terms of partnerships with many well-known foreign
universities, as well as its international faculty and student body. The tilted square represents
the mortarboard, which is the symbol of academia in relation to the community.
The colour blue, in its two shades, stands for peace and harmony.
