Overview

TMH as a teaching institute
TMH was established in 1908 and has been a teaching hospital for years and was linked for clinical education and Internship and Housemanship with the local MGM Medical College for decades. The School of Nursing began under its aegis in 1939.
Various technical courses, such as DMRS and DMLT are conducted here. It was only logical that Post Graduate education should be started too. Thus, the DNB programme at TMH began more than fifteen years ago. From initial five specialties of Anaesthesiology, General Medicine, General Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Paediatrics it is now offering 9 specialties and Fellowship in Critical Care Medicine.
We believe that our DNB Candidates are adult learners and we will provide clinical teaching and direct supervision to help them achieve clinical competency. This learning experience is also a service experience. The DNB Candidates learn though providing responsible and compassionate care to their patients.
An Academic Cell was established to network with similar educational institutions, give a focused approach to adult education and facilitate the same at Tata Main Hospital.

Activities of academic cell
In the 70s and 80s post graduate diploma courses in Obstetrics and Gynecology (DGO), paediatrics (DCH) and Radio-therapy (DMRT) were offered in TMH, affiliated to Ranchi University.

Compulsory rotating internship training programme
For many decades the Interns from MGM Medical College Jamshedpur were sent to this institution for completing their Internship and Horsemanship. Since a few years this has discontinued, but Medical Council of India has listed TMH as a Centre offering Compulsory Rotating Internship Training Programme. The selected candidates purse their Internship at TMH on acceptance by their medical college requesting their Internship. On successful completion, the doctors are given completion certificate by TMH.
Many students from Universities and Colleges apply to the Academic Cell for enrollment as part of their non-remunerative Summer Internship programme.
