Xuzhou Medical College, which was later renamed Xuzhou Medical University, is a public medical university in Xuzhou city in Jiangsu Province in eastern China. It is a key university under the Jiangsu Provincial Government and is recognized for its high level of medical education and scientific research work in northern Jiangsu and the Huaihai economic area as a whole. Xuzhou Medical University offers undergraduate courses as well as master’s and doctoral degree programs and postdoctoral research opportunities in fields such as clinical medicine, basic medicine, nursing, pharmacology, and biomedical engineering for domestic and foreign candidates.
(1958) Origins and Establishment
Xuzhou Medical University dates back to 1958 when it was founded as a branch of Nanjing Medical College in a bid to cater to an ever-increasing need for doctors within China. However, this was followed by an expansion initiative that took place when it was merged with a certain Xinhailian Medical Academy and was renamed as such. Achieving independence as an individual entity took place when it was renamed as Xuzhou Medical College in 1960. However, over the past few decades, this college has expanded its wings to include postgraduate courses and recruitment of foreign students as well as conducting advanced research.
Modern Day Development
Today, Xuzhou Medical University is a well-developed centre for healthcare education, research, and clinical practice in Jiangsu Province. The university has a number of colleges and departments offering a variety of disciplines covering medicine, science, engineering, and management, while accommodating thousands of students with both Chinese and international programs provided in English and Chinese. It continues to expand its research output and global partnerships: participating in scientific projects sponsored by national and provincial grants, and hosting academic exchanges with institutions abroad. Its affiliated hospitals support the practical training activities and also contribute to the region's healthcare services while enhancing the research and clinical strengths of the institution.

The motto of Xuzhou Medical University is to offer quality medical education and make breakthroughs in medical research. The university strives to inculcate in its students professional ethics, competence, and social responsibility, which will enable them to make quality contributions to healthcare in China and to advances in world medicine.
