Haiti's oldest medical school, the facility at the State University was founded in 1861, and for a long time was the country's only source of medical education. The program encompasses ten semesters of academic work, followed by an internship at Port-au-Prince's major hospitals or in community medicine. There are also post-graduate specialization courses, as newly graduated doctors become residents at area hospitals. The medical school offers a diploma course for pharmacists and for laboratory technicians.

This private university in Port-au-Prince has a particular concentration within its medical school on community medicine and public health projects. The medical college at one time offered a master's in Public Health in addition to its medical degrees. Its electronic medical library was linked to Cornell University Medical Library, allowing students access to those resources. The university buildings were almost completely destroyed by the January 2010 earthquake, but the institution has survived, and students are once more being enrolled.
