Our mission in life is very clearly defined: "to be the premier University, making available quality education, research and service to the people in India and abroad" . The mission is supported by a comprehensive Strategic Plan. Consequently, we have plotted a path for the future. Increasingly, we are judging our performance in the context of achievable but challenging benchmarks, thinking more globally, establishing international relationships, and generally making the university an exciting academic place to be.

To continually remind ourselves of our commitment to students, we have established a Student Charter, which outlines our responsibilities to our students, and their responsibilities to us. This helps us design new programs, and helps students to focus on the important elements of curriculum. Campus provides residential accommodation. Expectations about academic performance predominate over all other matters. You recognize that in entering the field of medicine, you join a community, wherein the team is as pivotal to success as individual effort.
