Bolan Medical College was established to address an acute shortage of doctors in the Balochistan province of Pakistan. Where Japan has 542 people per doctor, Balochistan has over 10,000 people per doctor.[2]
The college was established during Ataullah Mengal's reign as Chief Minister in 1972 by the then Education Minister Mir Gul Khan Nasir and has graduated over 2,900 students (c. 2003).[3][1] It was the recipient of a Japan International Cooperation Agency grant of 488 million yen in 1995.[2] The new building was operational in 1996.
It is accredited by the College of Physicians & Surgeons Pakistan to teach medicine, hematology, neurosurgery, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, otorhinolaryngology, pediatrics, psychiatry and surgery.[4][5][6]
