Degree Programs

Admissions

Admission to MBBS and BDS in Pakistan is controlled by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC), not by individual institutions acting alone. Applicants must clear the MDCAT and meet the PMDC eligibility floor in HSSC or an equivalent qualification before an institution can enrol them. Allied-health and nursing programmes follow separate routes, with nursing governed by the Pakistan Nursing and Midwifery Council. Confirm with Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) which of its programmes are currently PMDC-recognised, since recognition is granted per programme and can lapse. As a private-sector institution, fees are set institutionally rather than by government schedule, and can differ substantially between programmes — ask for the full per-semester schedule, not just the first instalment.

Applying in Islamabad

Islamabad institutions draw applicants nationally rather than from a single provincial catchment, and federally chartered institutions commonly reserve seats across all provinces and territories. Admission tests are usually institution-specific, with the national MDCAT applying to medical and dental programmes.

HEC Recognition and Accreditation

The Higher Education Commission lists Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) as a recognised institution. Recognition means the HEC accepts the institution as competent to award degrees, and that its degrees can be attested and treated as valid for further study and public-sector employment. Recognition is institutional, however, and does not by itself confirm that any particular programme is accredited by its professional body. For medical and dental programmes the operative approval is PMDC recognition of that specific programme.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) recognized by HEC?

Yes. The Higher Education Commission of Pakistan lists Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) as a recognised institution, which means its degrees can be attested by the HEC and are accepted for further study and public-sector employment. Recognition applies to the institution; individual programmes may additionally require accreditation from a professional council.

Is Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) private or government?

Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) is a private-sector institution. Private institutions set their own fee schedules rather than following a government scale, so ask for the complete per-semester cost across the full degree rather than only the first instalment.

What entry test is required for admission to Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT)?

Medical and dental admission requires the national MDCAT conducted under PMDC rules. Allied-health and nursing programmes use separate criteria. Confirm the current requirement on the institution's own admissions page, since criteria and closing dates change each cycle.

Does HEC recognition mean every programme at Islamabad University of Health Sciences and Emerging Technologies (IUHT) is accredited?

No. HEC recognition confirms the institution is chartered to award degrees. Individual programmes in regulated fields need separate accreditation — the Pakistan Engineering Council for engineering, PMDC for medicine and dentistry, the Pakistan Bar Council for law, NCEAC for computing. A programme can sit inside a recognised institution without holding that professional accreditation, so check the specific programme before enrolling.
