Dean’s Message
Welcome, from the Faculty of Medicine at Albaha University! We are committed to educating students to the highest level. The faculty of the medical program fulfil this goal of excellence by working together. We work as a team to provide the highest quality of education and skills to students, who will graduate competent in their fields and confident in their training so that this new generation of doctors can overcome obstacles and challenges, increase patient safety, and generally improve medical care in Saudi Arabia. Our vision is that the medical school will become a leader of innovation in education, research, and community service.
The program is young and thriving. The Faculty of Medicine was established in 2008, and we are delighted to have just graduated our first class this year. Moving forward, we are increasing our program capacity and will also be welcoming female students. The diversity of faculty and students in our program is an asset.
As we continue to grow, one of our aims is to achieve national and international academic accreditation. This goal is reflected positively in the routine activities of our institution. We strive to hold the institution and each of our students to the highest standards so that we may all reach our greatest potential and improve healthcare in Saudi Arabia.
Finally, special acknowledgment and thanks must be extended to the King of Saudi Arabia for supporting and enhancing medical schools across the country. In particular, we appreciate his approval of the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine at Albaha University, which will aid and support the healthcare system in this region.
