IIHS pioneers world-class medical education to address global shortage of healthcare professionals
The International Institute of Health Sciences (IIHS) is empowering students to pursue world-class undergraduate medical education, addressing the critical global shortage of healthcare professionals. With over 20 years of excellence, IIHS has established itself as a premier institution, producing skilled graduates who now contribute to healthcare systems in Australia, the UK, and the USA.
Dr. Kithsiri Edirisinghe, Co-Founder, CEO, and Dean of Medical Studies at IIHS, emphasized the institute’s mission. “The World Health Organization predicts a deficit of 10 million doctors by 2030, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. IIHS is bridging this gap by offering innovative undergraduate pathways,” he stated.
“Our programmes not only ensure academic excellence but also prepare Sri Lankan students to thrive in international healthcare environments,” Dr. Edirisinghe added. As global demand for medical professionals grows, IIHS continues to lead in shaping the future of healthcare education.
