The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University is a state health-sciences university established under the 1987 Act and functioning since July 1988. Alongside its affiliating role, its own Department of Epidemiology at Guindy in Chennai conducts postgraduate study in public health, epidemiology, biostatistics and medical journalism.
The university’s own Guindy department brings together postgraduate study and health research. The Department of Epidemiology describes a first year of coursework and research training followed by thesis work for its Epidemiology MSc. Academic activity, departmental assessment and supervision depend on the exact degree. These university-taught routes are separate from programmes delivered by affiliated medical and allied-health colleges across Tamil Nadu.

Obtain current accommodation information directly from the university before arranging a move to Chennai. The university lists an auditorium and guest-house facility, but that listing does not establish a student hostel entitlement or an accommodation charge for these programmes. Confirm availability, eligibility, location and payment terms separately.
Admissions support
Get focused help with your application, documents and visa process. We will turn the information on this page into a practical next-step plan.
Ask the university about current food facilities near the teaching department and any arrangements linked to accommodation. Plan meals around the actual academic timetable and communicate dietary or accessibility requirements in advance. A tuition or application payment should not be assumed to include meals.
Use the university’s official website and departmental contacts to confirm admissions, teaching arrangements and payments. Keep copies of submitted applications and official receipts, verify the exact beneficiary before a transfer, and obtain local emergency and campus contact information before attending. Admission to a university programme does not imply access to clinical work beyond its stated academic scope.
The university provides a regional medical library, virtual-library links, examination services and departmental contacts. Application forms request qualification records and provide an eligibility-certificate route for candidates from other universities. Obtain the next cohort’s document checklist and confirm any equivalent or foreign qualification before payment.
