ABOUT THE INSTITUTE

B.Sc. (Hons.) in Women’s Health, Hygiene and Disease Prevention

Women’s health spans far more than any single specialization usually covers, from reproductive and maternal health to adolescent and geriatric care, and the gap between what’s taught and what’s actually needed shows up constantly in hospitals and public health programs. This multidisciplinary programme trains students in anatomy, physiology, nutrition, public health, epidemiology, preventive healthcare, menstrual hygiene management, maternal and child health, and disease prevention, combining theoretical learning with field visits, health awareness campaigns, and research projects. Graduates leave equipped to work across hospitals, public health bodies, and community health programs.
