This 50-year-old institution was the 6th of its kind to be started in Tamil Nadu. The college initially trained D.M. & S. students, who had passed out of Kilpauk Medical College, for the Condensed MBBS Course. Girls students were first admitted in the year 1970 and the first batch of M.B.B.S. graduates of the college left in 1972. This college is affiliated to the Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University.
