Kodagu Institute of Medical Sciences Madikeri Faculty

The college boasts a highly qualified and supportive teaching faculty, with a teacher-student ratio of approximately 1:3. Each department typically includes a Head of Department or professor, two associate professors, and three to five assistant professors, with additional tutors holding at least an MBBS or M.Sc qualification. Faculty members are described as enthusiastic, approachable, and cooperative, aiding students in both academic and research activities such as ICMR projects. The course spans 5.5 years, including a one-year internship, with clinical rotations starting in the second year.

Annually, the college conducts three internal exams and one final exam in accordance with the RGUHS pattern, each comprising theoretical and practical assessments. While internal exams can be challenging, most students pass the final exams with adequate preparation. However, there is a noted shortage of non-teaching staff and a need for additional faculty in clinical subjects, particularly in the third and fourth years. Despite these challenges, the faculty-student interaction is positive, fostering a conducive learning environment.

A good choice .

The faculty is good . Based on subjects I can tell that the teaching is very good

Faculty is always there to help us . With anything and everything. Very much concerned about the studies of the students. Subject wise ..in the first year : Anatomy faculty is great , Physiology faculty is less , Biochemistry is also good . In the second year , pathology faculty is the best , microbiology is alright and pharmacology is very good . In the third year , PSM Faculty is great , forensic medicine faculty is good . In the fourth year all the faculties are pretty much good . Clinically , a great place to learn if you show interest . When it comes to exams , there will three internals per year and one university exam including the practicals . Exams are moderate to difficult range . They try to pass everybody but again it's the students hands .

Reality check for NEET aspirants. Should you take up an MBBS seat in a peripheral tier 3 college

Classes are conducted and few teachers are interested in teaching

Dislikes

Faculty is rude and unresponsive, nobody is perfect willing to teach except few departments.

Faculty _ highly qualified professionals with lot of experience and good qualifications but very understaffed eg only 2 professors in medicine when 8 are required minimum, so no one to teach the students. Para and pre clinical subjects of 1 st 2 nd year are all more or less good. Few exceptions are always there. Teachers are sincere and great in teaching, very approachable and interested to help students. Clinical subjects it's opposite. So 3rd 4th year is complete time waste. Which is sad as it is the main part of mbbs.

Hardwork pays off...????

The faculty is vey good and little bit ok The faculty to student ratio is very less Some teachers approach students very smoothly and nicely . I like Dr swaroopa ,Associate professor ,Department of anatomy Dr delson ,Pg,Department of anatomy Dr padmaja Kulkarni ,Head of Department ,patholgy Dr manjunath,Head professor ,Department of orthopedics Dr manjunath ,head professor ,Department of biochemistry I didn't like Dr mamatha ,Department of Anatomy I didn't like Dr Ravi kishan ,Department of physiology There are total 3 internals in a year ( conducted by college )and A final exam conducted by RGUHS university Difficulty goes on increasing and Final exam is best exam ever... Nearly 50 % of class strentgh fail to pass internals and and hardly 2-3 fail to clear final exam conducted by RGUHS Mbbs is much relevant as it helps us to learn through clinically based and patient exposure is much important in MBBS we get patient exposure through Clinical postings

It is correct and 100 % original according to me

Here about academics the most important thing is there is more teacher student interaction is there. Annually there are more exams like 3 internals and middle some monthly tests are conducted so in these sessions interaction is more.

Kodagu institute of medical sciences.

Faculty teaching and helping nature is good .

In terms of exams, three internals are conducted by the college and after the completion of the year the final exam will be there both theory and practical by the RGUHS university. Final exams are little tough.

Life in kodagu institute of medical science

The course is 5.5 years with one year internship included. The first year is basis for MBBS course it teaches u how to study for mbbs which is very different from other normal theory courses. The clinical rotation and posting start from second year. Which in an integral part of becoming a doctor.
