Department of Forensic Medicine

 

Forensic medicine brings the investigative capabilities of modern medicine to the aid of law and justice. Here students will have to apply their knowledge of the various sciences to the human body.

Students are exposed to techniques and rare aspects of forensic medicine through debates and conferences. In January 2007, for example, a CME program was conducted by inviting an Australian forensic pathologist for an insightful discussion on clinical forensic medicine. Students of II M.B.B.S. won laurels at the inter-collegiate mock court trial held at Meenakshi Medical College, Kancheepuram in March 2007.
