Prof. Feroz Memon Vice Chancellor

The University of Modern Sciences Tando Muhammad Khan

It is indeed a matter of profound pleasure and honor to write a few lines for the prospectus of Indus Medial College Tando Muhammad Khan as Vice Chancellor of The University of Modern Sciences Tando Muhammad Khan.

One of the greatest challenges in medicine is the incorporation of information and knowledge in our practice. Education began with gaining information which leads us to seek knowledge. This may be so and very optimistic as knowledge creates possibility of change and improvement in our approach. It can create amazing devices and techniques, save lives and spread information. But knowledge is not same as WISDOM. Proper practical use of knowledge requires Wisdom. This will Insha-Allah be achieved by their students of Indus Medical College.

We all have dreams but Alhamdulillah I have lived mine by having the noblest prefix associated with my name. When I stepped in, I was just another confused teenager, coming from a family of no doctors, not knowing what I was getting myself into. As time passed I learnt that the best way to counter stress was not restricting university life to academics and fortunately, I found people who shared the same opinion. Today, I leave with a stronger personality, a lot of memories with ZLCS and Welfare AID societies, a handful of amazing friends who stood by me every step of the way and this honorable title of ‘Best Graduate’ that I owe to my professors for their constant motivation and guidance, parents, siblings, friends, family and the entire staff of this university for their relentless support. I owe Ziauddin University the finest years of my life and I hope I can give back someday.

VISIONContributing to the improvement of health status of the people of Pakistan and other developing countries by producing human resource skilled to function optimally within available resources of health systems.

MISSIONDevelop in each student, the virtues and values of humanity, dignity and worthiness; a desire and capacity for critical reasoning; an appreciation and understanding of the social sciences; and the ability to communicate. Special emphasis is placed on promoting self-directed learning and developing lifelong learners and leaders in health professions with the skills to acquire new knowledge and meet the challenges of an exponential growth of information.

COMPETENCIES OF ZU GRADUATES:• Provide safe patient care holistically• Integrate basic science concepts to clinical situations• Communicate effectively• Collaborate with other team members• Contribute as researchers• Evidence based practice• Role model professionalism

INTRODUCTIONZiauddin Faculty of Medicine was established in 1996. It is strategically located within the university site at Clifton, Karachi. Medical teaching programmes are spread over three main tertiary care hospitals in different parts of the city. These hospitals are well equipped with advanced diagnostic, monitoring and treat-ment facilities. Ziauddin Group of hospitals includes: • Dr. Ziauddin Hospital, North Nazimabad Site: a 350-bedded hospital• Dr. Ziauddin Hospital, Clifton Site: a 150 bedded hospital • Dr. Ziauddin Hospital, Kemari Site: a 150

bedded hospital Other clinical learning sites include:• Primary Health Care Centers, Sikanderabad.• Dr. Ziauddin Cancer Hospital, North Nazimabad.• Dr. Ziauddin Maternal and Child Health Centre, Gol Market Nazimabad.

Ziauddin Faculty of Medicine prepares its students to become skilled practitioners, researchers and teachers with leadership potential. They develop skills to deal with health problems holistically and solve them at individual, family and community levels, through an innovative programme, with emphasis on individual attention in small teaching/learning groups. The undergraduate clinical programmes are community-oriented and address priority healthcare needs of the country. This enables students to acquire the art and skill of probing scientifically into health and related problems of individuals and com-munities. Students are exposed to a variety of learning strategies to provide experiential learning through a multi-disciplinary approach to patient care.

To meet the challenges posed by the expo-nential growth of information, students assume responsibility of their own learning, using student centered learning strategies such as Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Case Based Discussions, which also promote self-learning skills and teamwork. Research projects, relevant to national and community needs, are also encouraged.

PROGRAMME OFFEREDZiauddin Faculty of Medicine offers following undergraduate MBBS programme which is recognised by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC), the regulatory body responsible for issuing license to practice medi-cine and the Higher Education Commission (HEC)

At Ziauddin College of Medicine, a student is identified as an adult learner and is expected to utilise inborn capabilities to adapt and understand the rapidly changing academic atmosphere around the world.

Academic schedule for the MBBS degree programme reflects the innovative system-based course. In the first three years of training, a semester programme has been introduced and each year comprises two semesters. For the clinical training and experi-ence the students are rotated through all three hospitals affiliated with the University.

The course content is presented with a Body System based Modular approach which is in line with regulations of the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council for MBBS degree. Emphasis is given to the development of conceptual understanding and the ability to construct knowledge for oneself. The students are active-ly involved in their learning process and assess-ment involves examining the learner's entire conceptual network, not just focusing on discreet facts and principles.

Curriculum reviews are taken place critically on regular basis to incorporate content updates in the form of themes for quality improvement purposes. Patient Safety is one of these integrated themes introduced in MBBS curriculum.

Faculty from Basic Health Sciences (BHS), Com-munity Health Sciences (CHS) and Clinical Sciences are collaboratively engaged in teaching programmes. As a result, students develop a comprehensive understanding and holistic approach to recognise and solve healthcare problems.

The primary health care programme run by the university (PHC) serves as educational site for community based training. The PHC programme is a unique prototype of partner-ship between academia, local NGOs, govern-

ment and international NGOs for education, research and service.

ELECTIVESFor MBBS students, elective experience is man-datory. It should be acquired from institutions which may not be a part of the Ziauddin University system. Students have an option to undergo this in Pakistan or overseas. This experi-ence allows them a wider exposure and enables them to discover their specialised field of interest. The financial responsibility of com-pleting electives is undertaken by the students. The Dean’s Office facilitates placement of students for this purpose.

LEARNING AND TEACHING STRATEGIESSELF-DIRECTED LEARNINGThe College prepares students to become independent, self-directed, life-long learners. The introduction of student-Centred learning strategy is a step towards promotion of critical thinking and problem solving skills. Students are encouraged to consult from a wide selection of learning resources including books, journals, models, computer assisted learning programmes and the Internet.

PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING (PBL)PBL is the leading strategy adopted for learning at the Ziauddin College of Medicine. This approach is characterised by:

• Providing students an opportunity to learn how to deal with the problems they face in later professional practice.• Emphasis on self–motivation and responsibili-ty for learning.• Training for learning professional skills such as leadership and team work.

The aim of problem-based learning is to over-come various drawbacks in the traditional methods of instruction for instance passive role of students during lectures, irrelevant subject matter in curriculum, lack of integration between disciplines, insufficient preparation of

MBBS


35 36

students for higher education after complet-ing MBBS and in particular, the difficulties experienced by many medical graduates in applying what they have learned.

CLINICAL TRAININGA balance between hospital, ambulatory care, and community settings is essential for a meaningful exposure to curative, preventive, and rehabilitative aspects of health care. Learning at the Ziauddin group of hospitals provides a unique experience of exposure to patients from different geographical and eco-nomic backgrounds.

A squatter settlement adjacent to the universi-ty, in Sikanderabad, provides communi-ty-based setting and the outpatient care for patients belonging to a lower socio-economic class. Family Medicine Health Centre (FMHC) is a low-cost outpatient clinic for under-privi-leged population living close to the Clifton site. These sites provide better opportunities for learning for students as they come in contact with a varying range of people and patients with health problems.

Students begin their clinical experience from the third year. After an introductory course they gain experience in emergency, PHC clinics as well as outpatient and in-patient. The fourth year is mainly spent at Kemari site with fully developed ENT, Ophthalmology departments and clinical disciplines of Medi-cine and Allied, Surgery and Allied, Paediatrics and Gynaecology and Obstetrics.

In the Final fifth year, students are based in North Nazimabad site where a comprehensive attachment in Medicine, Surgery, Paediatrics and Gynaecology and Obstetrics aims at a professional problem oriented approach to make them ready for taking care of patients when they graduate. They are encouraged to make their own presentations and participate in discussions as well as gain knowledge from dedicated lectures and group tutorials on selected topics. The hospital’s state of the art diagnostics and intensive care facility helps


37 38

polish their clinical learning.

STUDENT ASSESSMENTMODES OF ASSESSMENTAssessment of knowledge, skills and attitudes is accomplished through various modes of assessment. MCQ-one best type, modified essay questions & Viva (oral examination) are mainly used to assess multiple levels of knowl-edge including recall of basic facts, clinical interpretation and application. However, Objective Structured Practical/Clinical Exami-nations (OSPE/ OSCE) are used to assess skills (practical/clinical) & attitudes with under-pinned knowledge background.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT POLICYSecuring minimum scores in an academic year requires consistency in Continuous Assess-ments. The minimum level is determined by a student’s achievement in module examina-tions, which include written tests, practical assignments and other academic activities. Student eligibility for Summative Examinations is determined by an individual’s attendance and performance in test and examination in a semester or academic year. Each student requires at least 80% attendance. Student performance in each year is judged by forma-tive (continuous) and summative (end of year) assessments.

PROFESSIONAL EXAMINATIONSThe first three academic years are semester based which are in line with the PMDC/HEC. The following two years are currently based on annual examination system. A consistent record of satisfactory performance is neces-sary for eligibility to MBBS Final Assessment. Each student’s performance is reviewed by the concerned department, which also deter-mines eligibility for the certifying examination. Progression to second, third, fourth and fifth year is regularly determined by achieving satis-factory performance in the respective aca-demic year.

ADMISSION POLICYAdmission to Ziauddin College of Medicine for a five-year MBBS degree is open to all individu-

als who meet the selection criteria as per PMDC policy.

PROGRAMME OFFEREDUNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMMEBACHELOR OF DENTAL SURGERY (BDS)

The past four years have been dedicated to establishing a career in dentistry. Being a member of a family of dentists, each with their own list of academic and professional achievements, has motivated me to carve my place amongst them. The dental program at the Ziauddin University offered me the necessary technical training and clinical knowledge in the field of dentistry, and armed me with the tools to be a denta practitioner that possessed leadership and problem solving skills. As part of my professional training, I’ve participated in a number of activities related to dentistry, including activities such as poster competitions and critical analysis of various scholarly studies.

Despite dedicating my time to enhance my professional goals, I strongly believe in giving back to society, which has played a significant role in my achievements. As a part of this endeavor, I’ve volunteered in many oral health and screening campaigns with my colleagues and faculty members. Finally, securing distinctions in 13 out of 17 subjects for the past four years at the Ziauddin University is an honor I have earned and extremely proud of. This achievement required hard work, I also credit this achievement to my professors for the training and academic teaching, and the support of my parents. Without these individuals, none of this would be possible. I look forward to starting the next chapter of my career, attending residency training, and specializing in dentistry.

My journey has only just begun!

EXIT LEVEL OUTCOMESRefer Study guides

INTRODUCTIONZiauddin College of Dentistry started its BDS programme in January 2010 with the mission to prepare confident dental professionals who are committed to excellence in the field of patient care and research that widens the horizon of knowledge particularly in relation to community health problems.

At Ziauddin College of Dentistry, a student is identified as an adult learner and is expected to develop as a responsible individual taking care of community dental problems.

PROGRAMME OFFEREDZiauddin College of Dentistry offers BDS undergraduate programme, recognised by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC). PMDC is the regulatory body responsi-ble for issuing license to practice dentistry.

Ziauddin College of Dentistry offers a four-year under-graduate degree programme leading to Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS), under the cooperative auspices of Ziauddin University.

COURSE DETAILSBDS programme is divided into four academic years; each year comprises a number of mod-ules related to subject specific scientific infor-mation, in accordance with PMDC recognized curriculum. Ziauddin College of Dentistry has taken the initiative of developing and imple-menting a horizontally integrated curriculum. The curriculum makes use of latest teaching strategies, which are aimed at providing better quality of education to the students.

LEARNING AND TEACHING STRATEGIESThe college recognizes the challenges met by students once they enter into professional lives. Therefore, students are empowered to adapt to the different ways of absorbing information and take responsibility of their own learning using student centered learning strategies such as Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Case Based Sessions (CBS).Community Oriented Education is also given its due importance in the College of Dentistry.

Students are actively involved in the learning process by interacting in small groups and by collecting, analyzing and synthesizing informa-tion relevant to the problems they are going to face in their professional lives.

PROBLEM BASED LEARNINGPBL is one of the strategies adopted for learn-ing at the Ziauddin College of Dentistry. This approach is characterized by:

• Opportunities to deal with problems students are going to face in later professional practice.•Emphasis on self-motivation and responsibility for learning on their own.•Training for learning professional skills, leader-ship qualities and team work.The aim of problem based learning is to over-

come various drawbacks in the traditional methods of instruction; for instance the passive role of students during lectures irrelevant s
