New Delhi: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur has received an allocation of INR 10 Crore in the Uttar Pradesh Government State Budget 2024-25. The institute has received the funding for the under construction Gangwal School of Medical Sciences and Technology and the Yadupati Singhania Super Speciality Hospital.
The aim of IIT Kanpur's Gangwal School of Medical Sciences & Technology, along with the Yadupati Singhania Super Speciality Hospital is to revolutionize healthcare delivery through cutting-edge research and advanced care facilities.
The funding will help in providing world class infrastructure and other services. The Gangwal School of Medical Sciences and Technology will cater to postgraduate academic degrees and biomedical research. It is expected to roll out its first courses by July 2026.
The Yadupati Singhania Super Speciality Hospital would be a 500-bed super specialty hospital fulfilling medical components and high-end care.
Prof S Ganesh, director, IIT Kanpur said, “The Gangwal School of Medical Sciences and Technology is an ambitious umbrella project the institute has envisioned to revolutionise convergence of medical and technical education and research. The idea is to build a robust healthcare ecosystem that not only propels the state’s research in MedTech but also enriches its medical facilities.”
“The state budgetary allocation is hence a momentous development for us as it aligns with the PM’s vision of a Viksit Bharat and the chief minister’s vision of better healthcare for the state. We are grateful to CM Yogi Adityanath for showing confidence in us and encouraging more impactful collaboration with the government,” he added.
Prof Sandeep Verma, professor in-charge, Gangwal School of Medical Sciences and Technology, said, “We will ensure the best utilisation of the committed funding from the state government for infrastructure projects. This generous funding will give fillip to multifarious development activities planned for the medical school. This is just the beginning of a shared mission we all have embarked upon.”
