Since TMU’s founding in 1960, it has gone through different stages: embryonic, pioneering, planting roots, expansion and sustainable development. Over this time frame TMU has advanced step by step, overcoming roadblocks and hurdles, building today’s eminent institution of one school and three hospitals, and decisively striding toward an ever better tomorrow.
