Established in 2014, as per the directions of Medical Council of India under the Nodal centre (St. John’s Medical College), the department currently has a strength of 13 faculty certified by NMC with training in the Nodal Centre (St. John’s Medical College) and are therefore qualified as resource persons for conducting Medical Education Technology workshops. It has all the infrastructure and equipment as per NMC guidelines. This has led us towards innovative curricular reforms resulting in integrated undergraduate medical curriculum. The faculty development programs conducted in association with the NMC in parallel to curriculum development equipped the faculty and leadership for the curricular changes.

Undergraduate students, once enrolled, go through a week-long orientation programme aimed at sensitizing them about adult learning principles, time and stress management, health scenario of the country, respect to patients, etc.
There is a system in place for obtaining and compiling student feedback about faculty members.
Interns and postgraduates are exposed to lateral learning of medico-legal issues, waste management, hospital safety and communication skills.
An important part of the student support mechanism, this programme puts in place an effective mentor-mentee system and offers students support, guidance and encouragement
The members of MEU evaluate the synopsis submitted by PG students to undertake research for dissertation.
The faculty is constantly encouraged to use effective and updated teaching techniques taught in these workshops. These include methods like e-learning, simulation, standardized patients, small group teaching, advances in assessment methods, educational research, etc.
The MEU organises evaluation of faculty members by peers, providing feedback to the faculty and inputs to the administrators.
