The Institution aims at providing the best of learning
comparable to global standards of medical education.

We seek to create doctors of the highest calibre. Doctors who are informed by sound,
technical training and inculcated with ethics and the values of professionalism. This is
possible by providing an effective learning environment in the form of proper infrastructure,
trained faculty and adoption of global innovative techniques of medical education.

The Institution has a strong Medical Education Unit (MEU)
which has nationally as well as internationally trained faculty in
the field of medical education. The unit also has faculty from all
medical disciplines.

MEU members have been trained under the National Teacher
Training Centre, JIPMER, Pondicherry and the FAIMER
(Foundation for Advancement of International Medical
Education and Research).

Our faculty also undergoes regular training under the Regional
Training Center (as per MCI guidelines) in the basics of
medical education.

ASSESSMENT

In order to ensure effective teaching-learning processes,
a 360° feedback mechanism has been put in place.

All teachers undergo an annual peer evaluation process with feedback, thus maintaining the standards we strive for. Student evaluation of the teachers and course content is done annually. This ensures a continuous development and improvisation of course content and teaching-learning methods.
In order to be exposed to international standards of education,

the Institution has provided a platform for faculty and student exchange in the form of scholarships and summer schools for students.

MEU encourages all faculties to continuously innovate, research and develop newer, more effective teaching-learning technologies to benefit the students.
