The West China Medical Center, Sichuan University (Chinese: 四川大学华西医学中心), formerly the West China University of Medical Sciences (traditional Chinese: 華西醫科大學; simplified Chinese: 华西医科大学), is a prestigious world-class public research institution of medical sciences located in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.

The institution was founded as the private West China Union University (華西協合大學) by Western missionaries in 1914, being the earliest modern comprehensive university with medical sciences education in China. It once conducted dual-degree MD, DMD, BA, and BS programs with the State University of New York since 1920s and 1930s. In 1938, the university was accredited by the United States' National Board of Medical Examiners. As of 1949, the university held four colleges specializing in arts, science, medical sciences, and dentistry, with 26 academic departments, 2 professional studies departments, and 7 affiliated teaching hospitals.[1]

In 1951, after the Chinese Civil War, the Sichuan Provincial People's Government took over the university, renaming it as the public West China University (華西大學). Under a higher education institution reformation plan directed by the Central People's Government of China, the university was deprived of other academic departments and turned into Sichuan Medical College (四川医学院) with sole focus on medical studies in 1953. The college was upgraded as West China University of Medical Sciences (华西医科大学) in 1985. Under another reformation ordered by the State Council, the university was incorporated into Sichuan University in 2000 and named the West China Medical Center, Sichuan University.[2]

The institution nowadays holds five schools and four affiliated teaching hospitals. Five schools include School of Basic and Forensic Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine (School of Nursing), School of Dentistry, School of Public Health, and School of Pharmacy. Four affiliated teaching hospitals respectively concentrate on comprehensive medical sciences, women and children's health, dentistry, and occupational disease treatment. Every school and teaching hospital is prefixed with the name "West China."[3]

The institution is now sponsored by the Ministry of Education of China. The West China Hospital, Sichuan University (the institution's principal affiliated teaching hospital) is consistently ranked in the top 3 hospitals in China and the largest comprehensive hospital in the world.[4][5][6][7]

History

The stele with the words "West China Union University" inscribed on it

The West China Union College was co-founded by American Baptist Foreign Mission Society, American Methodist Episcopal Mission, Friends' Foreign Mission Association and Canadian Methodist Mission in 1910.[8][9] Dr. O. L. Kilborn, Dr. R.G. Kilborn, and Dr. William Reginald Morse played key roles in its formation. The university's medical school was founded in 1914 and taught basic medicine and clinical medicine, biomedicine and stomatology. Three years later the school became the first to teach dentistry in China. In 1924 women were admitted to the college as a whole. Helen Yoh was the first woman to graduate medical school.
