It is my pleasure to welcome you to the official website of the College of Medicine at King Khalid University, one of the University’s cornerstone colleges that contributes significantly to achieving its strategic vision of academic excellence, research leadership, and community engagement, in alignment with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.

Within the framework of the University’s strategic plan, the College of Medicine is committed to delivering high-quality medical education through well-designed curricula, clearly defined learning outcomes, and an educational environment that promotes active learning, critical thinking, and lifelong learning, while meeting the needs of the healthcare sector in the Aseer region and across the Kingdom.

The College places strong emphasis on research and innovation as strategic priorities, by supporting applied research, enhancing the quality of scientific publication, and aligning health research with national and developmental priorities, thereby contributing to improved healthcare outcomes and sustainable development.

In line with the University’s mission of community service, the College actively strengthens strategic partnerships with the University Medical City and relevant healthcare institutions to ensure integration of education, training, and healthcare services, and to promote institutional efficiency and sustainability.

The College firmly believes that human capital is the foundation of excellence; therefore, it focuses on empowering and developing faculty members and academic and administrative staff, while applying principles of governance, quality, transparency, and accountability in accordance with national and international standards.

At the College of Medicine, we work collaboratively to graduate competent physicians who possess strong scientific knowledge, clinical skills, and professional and ethical values, enabling them to contribute effectively to the University’s aspirations, serve the community, and support the development of a vibrant society and a prosperous nation.
