Description:
Scarce c.19th engraving of the Medical School Buildings at the University of Melbourne
The university’s medical school was established in 1862, becoming the first in Australia. The construction of dedicated medical school buildings began in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting the growing demand for formal medical education. The original buildings, designed in Victorian and Edwardian architectural styles, housed lecture halls, laboratories, and teaching spaces. Over time, the medical school expanded with modern facilities, but the historic buildings remain a testament to Melbourne’s early leadership in medical training and research in Australia.
