About the Department
The subject of Anatomy introduces students to the study of the structure and internal architecture of tissues and organs of the human body and forms the basis for the study of medical sciences.
The Department has well-designed two dissection halls and a well-equipped histology laboratory, in addition, it has well-furnished demonstration rooms and a spacious research laboratory.
A large museum of the Department that exhibits a wide range of dissected specimens, charts, bones, joints, models, X-rays, and CT & MRI films form the main core of the content.
The Department also has the Body Donation Society office. The people from local and nearby districts tender the application forms by pledging the whole body to be taken by the college after their death, for training the students and for research purposes.
Head of the Department
Dr. Veena V Kulkarni
Teaching Program
For the undergraduate teaching and training region-wise didactic lectures, demonstrations with dissection of cadavers are arranged. Periodical class tests and three internal assessment examinations, both in theory and practical, are conducted regularly. For the postgraduate teaching and training, periodical seminars, journal clubs, and PG lectures are arranged. Cadavers are given to each of the postgraduate students for complete dissection of the body.
- Teaching faculty has adopted certain newer measures like small group teaching, Viva-voce discussions, and model-based teaching.
- Integrated teaching is being carried out by both vertical and horizontal integration
- Use of effective AV Aids– including a live demo of dissection steps routinely followed by hands-on participation by the students.
- Museum specimens and mannequins are promoted as an additional learning tool.
