King Edward Medical University (Punjabi, Urdu: کنگ ایڈورڈ میڈیکل یونیورسٹی; commonly abbreviated as KEMU) is a public medical university located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. It was established as Lahore Medical School during the British Raj in 1860 and is named after King Edward VII.

In 1868, Trinity College Dublin granted students of the Lahore Medical School "privilege similar to the granted to students from English schools". In 1871, the university added Mayo Hospital as an affiliated hospital, replacing the existing Anarkali Dispensary. The same year the college became an affiliate of University of the Punjab, while in 1887, the university added Lady Aitchison Hospital as a second teaching hospital.

After Pakistan's independence, the university became the only medical college in the province and in 2005 became a charter to award degrees in its own right. It has since gone through expansion, and oversees seven tertiary referral hospitals including the Lady Willingdon Hospital.

The university has a rich history of producing great physicians who have served not only in Pakistan but also in US, UK and many other parts of the world, and KEMU produces one of the highest numbers of successful USMLE Match candidates in Pakistan every year.
