- AIIMS-Delhi is venturing in to associate with Indian Institute of Technology, Indian Institute of Management, and Indian School Business to promote inter-disciplinary learning among medical students
- AIIMS to collaborate with Top B Schools to equip with modern management skills to medical students
- Dr. M Srinivas, Director, AIIMS, New Delhi is initiating interaction with representatives of other academic institutions on 26th February
Medical graduates are usually are good in medical academics, clinics, patient care & research. But they lack modern management skills and later in their medical practice face difficulty in complying with statutory regulations, they lack in Human Resource management, Logistics/Pharmacy/Inventory management, leadership skills, Legal issues, conflict resolutions, communications & Financial management. These are key roles Students should be familiar with fundamental concepts in management and finance in addition to treatment. AIIMS has planned this policy, considering the changing times and requirements. The AIIMS faculty members strongly opine that these key management/entrepreneur skills will assist them in their career growth. Imbibing of these skills will make their career smooth sailing in establishing hospitals/nursing homes.
Ketan Tewari, Regional Manager (North), Indian School of Business had interaction regarding its scope and opportunities along with the programmes that ISB has to offer.
It is strongly believed that such an initiative would help the medical students gain knowledge outside the routine medical education, patient care and research.
