Located on 64 acres donated by the Government of Pakistan, the Aga Khan University was conceived in 1970 to address a shortage of trained medical personnel and to improve healthcare delivery throughout Pakistan. The complex incorporates state-of-the-art educational and medical technology, while demonstrating that a modern architectural solution should preserve the spirit of the culture. The initial campus, completed in 1985, provided approximately one million square feet of space for hospital, academic, and housing functions. In 1999, Payette revised and updated the master plan for a series of building and renovation projects over the next decade to include an ambulatory care building, a cardiac services building, expansion to the existing surgical suite, the women’s residences complex, an oncology building, and a clinical laboratory, and sports facilities.
