History

Matias H. Aznar Memorial College of Medicine, Inc. (MHAM CM, Inc.) is an educational, non-stock institution established by Don Matias Hipolito Aznar II and his wife Doña Anunciacion Barcenilla Aznar. In the school year 1946–1947, the Doctor of Medicine Program was opened with full government recognition granted by the Department of Education (Philippines) in 1952 and the enactment of the Medical Act of 1965 by the Philippine Congress requiring all medical colleges in the country to be converted into a non-profit and non-stock educational institution. Thus, the Doctor of Medicine Program was converted and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Philippines)(SEC) on May 26, 1970, under the corporate name Matias H. Aznar Memorial College of Medicine, Inc. (MHAM CM, Inc.) and was given an institutional identifier number 7071 by the Commission on Higher Education (Philippines) (CHED). [1] The school was named after its late founder, Matias Hipolito Aznar II, known to the general public as MHAM, to honor and perpetuate his memory. The Doctor of Medicine is the only academic program offered by the school which operates separately from SWU PHINMA.

Campus

MHAM is located in R. Duterte St., Sitio Banawa, Brgy. Guadalupe, Cebu City. [2] The campus consists of a 10-storey main building, and a 6-storey annex building. Before locating in its current location, MHAM was temporarily located at Redemptorist Plaza, Brgy. Camputhaw, Cebu City.
