Ramaiah Medical College

The Ramaiah Medical College (RMC) was established in 1979 with the vision of providing quality education to all. The College is affiliated to the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS), Karnataka and is recognised by the Medical Council of India (MCI).

The College is well-equipped with the latest infrastructure, technology-enabled classrooms and advanced laboratories, and continually focuses on teaching, clinical practice, and research.

At RMC, we strive to nurture a well-rounded professional. Here, our focus is on building doctors with a strong, comprehensive foundation of medical knowledge. Our students learn through rigorous academics and a balanced focus on extra-curricular activities. They learn to practice in well-equipped OTs as well as in the rural and urban field practice areas. They learn to make decisions independently and when to collaborate with a fellow student of nursing, physiotherapy or pharmacy. At RMC, we support students to initiate, organise and participate in co-curricular activities. Because we believe a Medical Leader needs skills that go beyond treatment and cure.

We, at rmc, believe the world needs a new kind of medical leader. A medical leader:

• Who knows how to listen and when to reach out.
• Who can work with the latest equipment as well as with limited resources.
• Who is eager to question and discover better solutions.
• Who collaborates with fellow experts to ensure the best outcome.
• Who is driven by fierce compassion.
• Who isn’t just an expert, but an empathetic expert.
• Who knows the art of prevention, rehabilitation and cure.
• Who goes beyond commitment to make connections.
• Because the patient is not a condition. But a person.

Students are encouraged to participate in various extra-curricular activities where they get to plan, organise and lead. The medical college has its own cultural, literary and sports committees guided by faculty members and led by students. RMC is the first medical college in India to conceptualise and implement a medical conference for undergraduates, organised by undergraduate students themselves. RMC puts elaborate emphasis on collaborations with national and international universities to develop a global perspective among students and prepare them for universal medical requirements.
