Message from the Programme Director 

One of the missions of Aga Khan University is to promote academic and clinical training for postgraduate trainees. The general objective of our programme is to produce qualified and trained anaesthesiologists, capable of functioning in a variety of clinical inpatient, outpatient, and critical care settings.
