Welcome to the Medical College Campus!
Our
campus is one of the biggest among the leading institutions
across Thiruvananthapuram. That's mainly because there
are so many buildings of other institutions like the
Regional Cancer Center (R. C. C.) and the Sri Chithira
Thirunal Institute of Medical Science and Technology
(S. C. T. I. M. S. T.) located inside it. There are
many areas of unexplored land inside the campus in
which we may find some endangered species. Yes it
is quite vast. I'll try and guide you through most
of the campus in this section. I don't have any pictures
to add some life to the text. But I promise, I'll
try to get them soon.
The Road
It
stretches from the Medical College junction to the
main building of the Medical College. On the right
side of the first stretch is the Medical College Hospital.
On the left is the Dental College, The Margin Free
Medical Shop and the Superintendent's Office. Then
you reach junction (not literally) where there is
the statue of the the Mother and Child. The Sri Avittam
Thirunal Hospital (S. A. T.) lies directly ahead of
us behind this statue. Immediately next to the S.
A. T. is the College of Nursing and the Nurse's Hostel.
To the right is the Mortuary and the back part of
the Hospital. On the side of the Mortuary you'll find
the Male House Surgeon's Quarters (M. H. S. Q.).
The
road continues toward the left of the junction. In
this part, S. A. T. is on the right side. A little
further on, you find the S. C. T. I. M. S. T. on the
left side. Then there is a right turn which takes
you to the S. A. T. Casualty Department and the Ladies
Hostel. Immediately
after the right turn, there are two playing grounds
on the right side. The second one is the Medical College
Ground. On the left side of the road opposite to the
ground is R. C. C. There is a turning towards the
right immediately after the ground which leads to
the Indira Gandhi Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences
and the Pathology Department. The road widens after
this and it takes us to the main building. This houses
all the Preclinical and Paraclinical Departements
including the Forensic Department. There is a lovely
garden in the front of the buliding.
The
road circles around the building. On the backside
of the main building is the Department of Pharmaceutical
Sciences. Just before the main building, there is
a left turn which leads to the Medical College Office
and the Central Libary. On the left side of this road
is the entrance to the C. O. Karunakaran Memorial
hall. The road continues down by the side of this
and the Men's Post Graduate Hostel. From here the
road goes east circles around some of the Quarters
for the staff and come up near the main road by the
side of the D. M. O.
