IIT Hyderabad plan to set up a medical school in Medak campus

IIT's Wings more expanding...iit new
Decision of the IIT-Council,to allow IITs to start medical courses has revived the hopes of IIT Hyderabad to launch a medical school on its campus at Medak. It has become essential for IIT-Hyderabad to set up a medical school following its decision to focus on biology by offering courses like bio-informatics, bio-technology etc. This requires students to visit medical schools frequently and IIT Hyderabad feels that having its own medical school will benefit both students and the faculty.
IIT Hyderabad plan to set up a medical school to expand their horizon beyond engineering. IIT Hyderabad is planning to offer MD degrees in the next three years initially and launch MBBS courses later. IIT Kharagpur proposes to start a medical institution in collaboration with Indian Railways, which will offer courses for MBBS, MD, MS and PhD degrees.
