Students interested in this area of body science are guided by a team of dedicated faculty members with excellent teaching resources. The sessions are a mix of both theoretical/practical training and pre-clinical knowledge instruction. Regular symposia, seminars and journal club meetings create forums for the exchange of ideas. Faculty members use both vertical and horizontal methods of lecture and demonstration classes so that students can have a deeper understanding of applied physiology.

Curriculum

The undergraduate students are given a sound grounding in the basics of physiology. The curriculum is comprised of lectures backed by practical classes where students apply concepts in real time. The postgraduate program imparts to students a detailed look at physiology, instructing them through tutorials, seminars and group discussions and motivating them in research activities of their interest under the guidance of expert faculty.

Biochemistry, the soul of medicine is an excellent and an ever growing discipline having extensive teaching and research activities. It encompasses a versatile knowledge with clinical correlation.

The first year students learn about the chemistry and biological aspects of medical biochemistry in their theory and demonstration and orient them towards health and disease by various problems based learning methodology.

By doing some routine clinical investigation in the practical laboratory, we are familiarizing the student to correlate; clinical finding in disease condition and the student are also oriented towards seminars, case studies and discussion in tutorial biochemistry classes.

By conducting internal examination and giving regular assignments the academic performance of the students are assessed.

The department of microbiology at MAPIMS possesses a faculty & training programme that is one of the best in the field. State of art facility, including all equipments students lab, demonstration halls, bacteriology, virology, & immunology lab, research lab exist in the department.

The student’s lab as well as diagnostic lab is provided with digital microscope. For practical work each student will be allotted with binocular microscope. The department library is furnished with text books of several international & national authors. To add on to its pride, there is department museum with charts, model & various parasite specimens etc.

The routine diagnostic work will be done in the diagnostic lab which also caters to all the practical necessities of the students. Apart from routine curriculum, the student will have to take active part in seminars; problem based learning, short project work & quiz.

This field has been revolutionized by cutting edge techniques that make surgery painless both pre-and post-operation. The faculty team consists of professors, asst. professors and junior residents who will take students' knowledge and skill in surgery to a higher level. Undergraduate students are trained by senior and assistant professors who believe that clinical observation and practice shape the skills of their students.

The Department of General Medicine is one of the key departments among clinical specialties. Post-Graduation course in General Medicine first started in 2009. Over the years the department has evolved and has maintained pace with changing times and needs of the society. Today, besides training undergraduates and post graduates in General Medicine.

Cardiology (from Greek καρδίᾱ kardiā, "heart" and -λογία -logia, "study") is a branch of medicine that deals with the disorders of the heart as well as some parts of the cardiovascular system. The field includes medical diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease and electrophysiology. Physicians who specialize in this field of medicine are called cardiologists, a specialty of internal medicine. Pediatric cardiologists are pediatricians who specialize in cardiology. Physicians who specialize in cardiac surgery are called cardiothoracic surgeons or cardiac surgeons, a specialty of general surgery.

Specializations

All cardiologists study the disorders of the heart, but the study of adult and child heart disorders are through different training pathways. Therefore, an adult cardiologist (often simply called "cardiologist") is inadequately trained to take care of children, and pediatric cardiologists are not trained to take care of adult heart disease. The surgical aspects are not included in cardiology and are in the domain of cardiothoracic surgery. For example, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), cardiopulmonary bypass and valve replacement are surgical procedures performed by surgeons, not cardiologists. However, some minimally invasive procedures such as the cardiac catheterization and pacemaker implantation are performed by cardiologists with additional training in non-surgical interventions (interventional cardiology and electrophysiology respectively).

The P.G. course in the Department of Psychiatry at Katuri Medical College & Hospital was started in 2009. Since then, the department has been actively involved in clinical care, training students from various streams, research and community work.
Professionals from Psychology and Psychiatric Social Work are involved in management of each patient, so that the care provided is holistic. Treatment approaches used are according to the various international standard guidelines. The students are benefited from this approach of care and are better skilled

Area of Study :

Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders. These include various affective, behavioral, cognitive and perceptual abnormalities.
Human body and mind are interrelated, and illness of body affect the mind and vice versa. There can be no health without a healthy mind. The combined treatment of psychoactive medication and psychotherapy has become the most common mode of psychiatric treatment in current practice, but current practice also includes widely ranging variety of other modalities. While the focus of psychiatry has changed little over time, the diagnostic and treatment processes have evolved dramatically and continue to do so. Over the years the field of psychiatry has evolved and has become less conceptually isolated from other fields of medicine.
