To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the school's foundation, an educational museum of medicine called the Medical Museum of Kawasaki Medical School (川崎医科大学現代医学教育博物館, Kawasaki Ika Daigaku Gendai igaku kyouiku hakubutukan) was built in 1981 to facilitate the independent learning of medical and postgraduate students.

Students are able to instruct themselves by examining the exhibited specimens and to solidify their understanding. Practicing physicians are also welcome to visit the museum to further their medical education. It is also designed to propagate knowledge of medicine and health care to the general public.
