About Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research

Originated as 'Ecole de Medicine de Pondicherry' by the French Government in the year 1823, Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research (JIPMER) is a medical college located at Puducherry.

Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER) can trace its origins to the ‘Ecole de Medicine de Pondicherry’ established by the French Government in 1823. In 1956 foundation for new medical college was laid and in 1964, hospital was inaugurated. JIPMER became an institution of national importance under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India in the year 2008. It is an institution established for teaching, research and patient care in the area of health. JIPMER spreads over 192 acres. The institution houses one administrative block, one academic centre, one nursing college, seven hospital blocks, seven accessory services buildings and four residential complexes. 12 broad types of medical, nursing and allied health science courses covering all disciplines in healthcare from basic to super speciality training are conducted.

This medical college was converted into Dhanvantari Medical College at the time of de facto transfer of Pondicherry to Govt. of India. Later, the college was upgraded to a Regional Postgraduate Centre under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India and renamed as JIPMER in 1964.

JIPMER is an Indian central government funded institute with autonomy to run its internal administration. JIPMER is both an educational institute that imparts undergraduate and postgraduate medical training and a working hospital that provides inexpensive medical care to a large number of patients.

The institute aims to provide a high-quality learning environment for those undertaking taught and research degrees awarded by JIPMER in the Faculty of Medicine and all medical graduates meet the core outcomes set by the Medical Council of India (MCI), New Delhi.
