Back in the 1930s, the Institute of Donglu began specializing in the medical subjects and that was the start of the teaching medicine in Kunming Medical University(昆明医科大学). Having done steady progress and developed its curriculum, it opened the first medical college in 1935, which was associated with the Institute of Yun’an that was the ancestor of the Donglu institute.

No further, China’s national educational Committee enlisted it as the leading and fast-growing institute in 1975. The university title was not given to it until 2010, and after that, it started to be called Kunming medical university. To date, this university appears to be the biggest educational organization that is specializing in medicine in the whole region of Yun’an.
