Departments of medical education play crucial role in providing technical support to the medical and dental colleges to plan educational activities. Realizing the need for such departments, in 2008, the PM&DC made it mandatory, that every medical and dental college must have a department of medical education. These departments now form essential component of college infrastructure to provide effective and quality educational services.
