HSZH Unani Medical College, Bhopal, is the only Govt autonomous Unani College established by the Government of Madhya Pradesh in 1998. Presently, the annual intake capacity of the students is 60 at the undergraduate level with well equipped 100 bedded hospital in which pathology lab, sonography, X-ray and ECG facilities are available all the time, and very soon the dream of starting postgraduate courses will come true as the efforts in this regard are underway. It is worth mentioning that one of the priorities set in regard to the hospital as a vision of futurity, is to make it a referral hospital for the entire state.

It was like a dream came true for the people in the state when the Government of MP announced the decision about the establishment of this college since it was the first Unani medical college in public sector after the closure of Asfia Tibbiya College a Unani medical institute established during the era of royal state of Bhopal.

The college has a spread of 10 acres area of land as a part of beautiful, common AYUSH campus, the first of its kind in India where Unani Ayurvedic and Homoeopathic colleges have many things in common i.e. spectacular scenery that has wide appeal in the area, academic interaction, administrative collaboration, cordial & faithful atmosphere in dealing with many problems jointly. This college shifted from old city of Bhopal to its new campus located near Kalia Sot dam in 2008. Since then, it has been going from strength to strength making great strides over a very short span of its existence. This institute which has affiliation with Barkatullah University, Bhopal and recognition by the Central Council of Indian Medicine New Delhi is the center of excellence for the Unani in the state with 14 departments and fully equipped 100 bedded hospital.

The institute has come a long way since its early days as the college now has sufficient teaching staff with new college building and the new building of hospital which is running and enjoying all the satisfaction of being a successful hospital. Moreover, it is a point of honour for the college that its annual student intake increased from forty to sixty seats in 2014. These examples will suffice to prove that the college is on the path of rapid progress.

The entire team of the college comprising the principal, physicians, consultants, teaching and non teaching staff are determined to make the college & hospital grow and develop on the principles laid down by the great souls of Unani system like Hippocrates, Galen, Ibn-e- Sina, Ibn-e-Baitar, Allama Ibn-e- Nafees, Hakim Ajmal Khan and so on.

During a short period of time, the college has many feathers in its cap such as many students cracked the competition at national level to get admission in National Institute of Unani at Bangaluru, many students of this college were selected as Medical officers in the state through PSC and many a good student is also giving medical services for National rural health mission NRHM in different parts of the state. The college also prides itself on having more than two thirds of its faculty as Post Graduates.

For this reason, every endeavour is being made by the Government of Madhya Pradesh and the college administration to make a success of this institute. Keeping in view the future plan, many measures and steps are initiated to have the PG building completed and get the post graduation course started very soon.
