University Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC)

UKMMC
UKMMC

The Faculty of Medicine was established on 30 May 1972, serving as a medical institution dedicated to medical and nursing training, research, and clinical services under the leadership of a Dean. Initially, clinical training for medical students and medical services provided by faculty members were conducted at Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL), acting as a teaching hospital.

In 1997, Hospital UKM (HUKM) was founded as the primary teaching hospital for the Faculty of Medicine, UKM. The administrative structure of HUKM was distinct from the faculty, with its leadership held by a Hospital Director. Initially, one officer held both the positions of Dean and Hospital Director, but since 1998, separate individuals have occupied these roles.

However, on 20 February 2008, the Faculty of Medicine and HUKM merged to form a new entity known as Pusat Perubatan UKM (PPUKM) or UKM Medical Centre (UKMMC), guided by the motto: Integrating Education and Research for Society. The PPUKM is led by a Dean cum Director, responsible for managing the full spectrum of academic, research, and clinical services at the center.

The Dean cum Director is supported by a Chief of Operations, tasked with ensuring the smooth day-to-day administration of HUKM and assisting with administrative duties within the hospital.
