Great experience and a very good college.Our college organizes various field visits for participant as a regular academic activity.This field visits are conducted as a part of course modules.This field visits helps us in gaining practical exposure.We are taken to various places as a part of these visits including civil hospitals, urban healthcare etc.

No entrance needed for admission into this course.As a govt Institution, admissions are based on merit and scores obtained in graduation by the students.A high score in graduation is required.Before admission students have to prepare themselves for group discussion and personal interview.

This program is designed to develop professionally trained administrators , who can play an effective managerial roles and provide leaderships in public/private hospitals and healthcare institutions. The classes are taught using a variety of teaching / learning techniques, including lectures, case discussions, practical exercises, lab discussions etc.It is a two-year full time programme.

IIPHG placement cell is established in March 2012.They assists us in job placements of the self sponsored participants of the various program.Placement cell activities includes creation of database of potential recruiters and student candidates.They also conduct placement need analysis among the participants , set contact with potential employers and communicate current job announcements related with public health.

A journal club has been in place at the Institute as a part of which weekly seminars are organised, where all participants, research staffa and faculty are encouraged to present their own research work or review a published article/report.We are encouraged to present the papers so that we can develop our presentational skills.These seminars are organised every wednesday.

All the faculty in our Institute are very encouraging and meritorious.They help us not only in class teaching or academic life.They also help us in practical subjects also.During field work and seminars we seek much help from them and they are also always available to help us in the same way.This a very good quality of every teacher.
