The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) is a public medical school in Charleston, South Carolina. It opened in 1824 as a small private college aimed at training physicians. It is one of the oldest continually operating schools of medicine in the United States and the oldest in the Deep South. The school's main building was designed by Charleston architect Albert W. Todd. The school has expanded into a state university with a medical center and six colleges for the education of health professionals, biomedical scientists, and other health care personnel. It also operates as a center for research and has a public hospital.

Universities and Colleges provide students with the skills to compete in increasingly global workplaces and are themselves, significant employers. They are the breeding ground of innovation and entrepreneurship. In partnership with government and business, academic research and technologies help to drive an array of vital industries. The main functions of colleges and universities are predominantly two-fold. One is as educational establishments and the second as generators of knowledge and technology. As educational establishments, it is to provide able, self-directed learners that are independent and confident and will go out into society and give to the community through leadership or civic duties. As knowledge generators, they are research institutions there to provide new knowledge, to change paradigms, to aid society in its development and in meeting new challenges as they come along.
