project comprising of a state of the

Over 31,000 students pass FSc. in 1st Division. Approx. 5,000 get admission
in medical colleges. Out of 26,000 remaining, about 900 go abroad
and spend over Rs.4.5 billion of foreign exchange. W.H.O recommends one doctor for 1,000
people, so 150000 doctors are required .Another 58,000 are required due to Population
growth.

Establishment of a reliable
Research Center to support
the mission of the
institution and attract Research
Grants. In order to do so,
establishment of a state of the
art hospital, accredited

Partners Harvard Medical
International entered into an
initial agreement with DHAI in 2006.
Following an initial assessment and
site visit, PHMI developed a
proposal for DHAI which resulted in
a long-term MOU for 10years,
governing the collaborative efforts
to create a comprehensive academic
medical center as part of the DHAI
Phase 2 development. PHMI agreed to
act in an advisory function,
co-develop or review the various
aspects of the project, focusing on
governance, strategy, programmatic
elements, human resource
development, quality management, facilities and systems.

Over the past year, PHMI has been working with DHAI Education Foundation, its managing
partner OMG and its task force to develop a Master Plan for the site looking for
the next 20 years. This was done mainly by SASSAKI. SASSAKI are well known planners
of THE OLYMPIC CITY, Beijing, China. ELLERBE BECKET was engaged for architectural
work which are ranked as one of the top 5 in the US. ARUP have also created a new
destination for the region.

This realization of the master plan and architectural work in progress is a testament
to the strong vision and collaboration across the planning team – and the result
will have a transformative impact on the delivery of health care and education in
health sciences in our nation.

The information technology has made it possible to conduct the capacity building
of the staff and faculty through state- of- the- art facilities of multidisciplinary
virtual centre. The inauguration of our Capacity Building Center is the first functioning
unit of the National Institute of Health & Social Sciences which would be working as a staff
college for faculty development. It will remain functioning throughout the life
of the university aligned with international standards and will be a permanent source
of providing the critical mass for the upcoming hospital.
