Since the founding of the first medical school in Malaysia at the University of Malaya IN 1963, the Higher Education Ministry has to date approved the registration of medical programmes in 25 universities, 22 university colleges and five branch campuses of foreign universities.

Because of this, we are seeing an influx of medical graduates; giving rise to concerns whether certain programmes are of sufficient standard. There are currently 34 medical schools compared to 9 and 12 medical schools in 2002 and 2007 respectively.

Sixteen new medical programmes commenced from 2009 to 2010. There were 3,714 doctors who were provisionally registered (housemen) in 2011 compared to 1,534 in 2007.
