Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, opened its doors in January 1955. The Medical Council of India granted recognition to KMC Mangalore in 1958, with the first graduating class. Recognition by the General Medical Council of Great Britain and the Malaysian Medical Council followed soon.

The College was first affiliated to Karnataka University and later in 1965 to Mysore University, followed by affiliation to Mangalore University in 1980. Manipal, today, could be a data powerhouse and a name in teaching. Over 5 decades past, one man, Dr Tonse Madhava Anantha Pai, had a vision that ensured everything he did then, was consigned to posterity, ensuring that generation of scholars fancy the fruits of his labour until eternity on this lateritic upland and also the students can, forever, have one name on their lips, that of Manipal. Manipal University could be a name to recollect, not simply across the India, however worldwide. The very fact that students from fifty two countries area unit learning here could be a testimony to the present fame.

The premier co-educational college is located in the picturesque hill station of Manipal in Karnataka. Initially it was set up with just the pre-clinical section at Manipal and the clinical training was conducted in Mangalore. In 1969 the clinical programme started at Manipal and the Kasturba Medical College started functioning as a full-fledged independent college.
