Undergraduate teaching starts from the third term to the ninth term. The theory lecture classes are held every day. The students also have clinical postings every day. Students undergo rigorous training in clinical examination & management in the wards. They get an opportunity to observe many surgical procedures. The students are also posted to the labour theatre in small groups for one week where they get a closer look at how the emergencies are tackled day & night. The undergraduate students also have seminars, tutorials and general clinics every week, which enhances the students’ knowledge as well as prepares them for the examinations.

The postgraduate teaching includes weekly seminars, case discussions & journal clubs. There are frequent interdepartmental meetings, clinico-pathological meetings, subject symposia, perinatal & maternal mortality meetings. The postgraduates get a graded training in the labour theatre. They get an opportunity to assist all operations including endoscopy & radical surgery. They also get a chance to perform several major and minor surgical procedures under the supervision of the staff. The students’ performance is assessed periodically by internal assessment.
