The first American medical school was founded at the University of Pennsylvania in 1765.
The idea of establishing a medical school in Philadelphia appears to have been first conceived by Dr. William Shippen (1736-1808) and Dr John Morgan (1733-1789).
Dr. Shippen on his return from Europe, in the year 1762, commenced a course of lectures on Anatomy.
While Dr. John Morgan, return from Europe with an Edinburgh MD and attend teaching as the college’s original medical professor, thereby inaugurating the first medical school in the American colonies.
It was 3rd May 1765 at which the first medical professor was appointed. For its first hundred years the medical faculty taught students at the Pennsylvania Hospitals, five city blocks from the second location of the college’s buildings.
The first medical commencement was held in the 21st of June 1768.
