Yenepoya Medical College

What Yenepoya Medical College does

Yenepoya Medical College is a private medical college established in 1999 and located in Mangalore, Karnataka, India, operating as a constituent college of Yenepoya (Deemed-to-be-University). The institution delivers medical education across more than 35 programmes spanning undergraduate degrees (MBBS, BASLP), 23 postgraduate MD/MS departments, three super-specialty departments (M.Ch. Urology, M.Ch. Surgical Oncology, DM Oncopathology, DM Nephrology), M.Sc. Medical, PG Diplomas, fellowships, and certificate courses. Total enrolment exceeds 1,200 students with 320+ faculty. Annual intake of 250 MBBS students is permitted by the National Medical Commission, and admissions are processed through the government-mandated NEET counselling system (Medical Counselling Committee, DGHS New Delhi, and Karnataka Examination Authority).

The college is integrated with a 1,090-bed tertiary care teaching hospital, more than 20 satellite centres administered by RHCDC, and ten telemedicine telecentres, providing a large clinical training footprint. Differentiated clinical infrastructure includes the first da Vinci Robotic Surgery unit in a South Indian medical college, India's first Anatomage table for 3D virtual dissection housed in the ACTSYEN simulation centre, TrueBeam radiotherapy at the Tata Trusts-supported Zulekha Yenepoya Institute of Oncology, and a Digital Health and Demographic Surveillance System (DHDSS) for real-time population health data. The hospital holds NABH and NABL accreditations; the university has held NAAC A+ since 2008 and is recognised under section 3(A) of the UGC Act 1956.

The business model combines tuition revenue from regulated medical seats (undergraduate, postgraduate, super-specialty, fellowship, and certificate programmes) with revenue from tertiary and super-specialty hospital services. NEET-based online counselling serves as the primary admissions channel, with direct website applications available as a secondary route. Customer segments are bifurcated: medical students (national, merit-selected) and patients (regional Karnataka and beyond). Faculty research output includes high-impact publications, notably the RATIONS study in The Lancet and Lancet Global Health that influenced WHO TB-nutrition guidelines.
