Medical education at national S&T institutesTI Medical education at national S&T institutes

摘要

Indian higher education is undergoing a reform. The Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and some Central Universities (CUs) have excelled in higher education and research in the country. The Government of India (GOI) has started six National/Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research, 9 IITs and 19 CUs in the last few years. In the post-independence era, the growth in medical education in India has been negligible compared to S&T education. India has not established any medical institutes in the past few decades, as it has in the field of S&T.
