In 1881, when University College Dundee was founded, the city of Dundee contained the Royal Infirmary and the Royal Lunatic Asylum which would provide medical teaching space for the new institution. The College however, had no power to award degrees. The Faculty of Medicine was established in Dundee in 1897 as a joint venture between the University of St Andrews and University College Dundee.
Buildings for the Dundee Medical School were officially opened in 1904, with the intention of accommodating 100–150 students. Proposals for the design of the new hospital and medical school (Ninewells) were put forward in 1960 but the building was not completed until 1the 1970s. The building cost around 10.5 million to construct and it was opened by the Queen Mother in October 1974. It was the second purpose built medical school in the UK and is affiliated with the University of Abertay and the University of Dundee.
The School of Medicine now encompasses undergraduate, postgraduate, specialist teaching centres and four research divisions.
