MEDICAL EDUCATION UNIT

Objective: To improve the quality of medical training by training the teachers.

Sensitize teachers about new concepts in teaching and assessment methods
Develop knowledge and clinical skills required for performing the role of competent and effective teacher, administrator, researcher and mentor
Assist clinicians to acquire competency in communication and behavioral skills
Update knowledge using modern information and research methodology tools.

Since its inception, the MEU of AIMS has involved in training the teachers to enrich their knowledge and skills, and to update them about the use of modern technology in teaching and research. MEU has also trained the students of the institution with regular induction and orientation programmes. The approach of MEU is strongly problem-based and student centered, utilizing the teaching expertise of the institute. A depth of preclinical understanding is matched with robust clinical competence to produce a medical graduate who is prepared for a lifetime of scholarship

The Medical Council of India, by the MCI Regulations on Graduate Medical Education, 1997, made it mandatory for all medical colleges to establish Medical Education Units (MEUs) or departments in order to enable faculty members to avail modern education technology for teaching.

The global shortage of well trained health care professionals, greater complexity in medical diagnosis and management, and increasing community expectation of good health outcomes has made medical education one of the core academic disciplines. Hence the Medical Education Unit (MEU) was started as a part of the Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences.
