Bachelor of Science(B.Sc) Degree Courses

Allied health professions are clinical Health Care professionals, trained to use cutting-edge technology for various diagnostic, therapeutic, and monitoring of direct patient care and support services to impact different dimensions of human health and practices. They are allies in a Health Care Team, working together to deliver high quality patient care services. Health Sciences course helps to develop technologists with a strong scientific background to help the physicians in the diagnostic and therapeutic care.

We train and develop para medical graduates who support the clinicians in medical colleges, hospitals and clinics. In the hi-tech world of modern health care, the need for a team approach in curing illness and sustaining life is essential and it takes people with varying skills and expertise to make up the team. Advanced complex instrumentation and equipment require technocrats not only to operate but also to care and maintain them as well.

MILA & Flipped Class

MILA ( Multiple Integrated Learning Algorithm) helps teachers to evaluate and assess the understanding of individual students regarding a particular topic.Activities such as jigsaw, POGIL(Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning), mind mapping, game based learning, critical pedagogy, peer-led team based learning,role play and scale up not only keep the students interested in the topic but also help them break down and easily understand challenging topics and reproduce the concepts easily. Flipped class is a pre recorded video of the content of the class is given in advance to the students. The students view the video before the class. The class begins with an interactive discussion. This minimises the duration of content delivery during the class hours and promotes high order learning of concepts and their applications. The same videos also help in revision before the examination. 

Job oriented training

Orientation is providing basic information on nature of the job and training the students to face the job with confidence and excel in it. This is done through lectures, workshops, soft skill development,interactive sessions and so on.. This enables the student to be more confident to face interviews. Also when they take up a job they will know how to do a flawless work and shine in their profession.
