About Course

The MD (Ayurveda) in Sharir Rachana at the National Institute of Ayurveda is a specialized postgraduate program dedicated to the advanced study of human anatomy and structural sciences in Ayurveda. The course is designed to provide comprehensive understanding of anatomical concepts described in classical Ayurvedic literature along with modern anatomical and embryological sciences.
The department focuses on detailed study of body structures, organ systems, embryological development, anatomical correlations, and structural-functional relationships that form the basis of Ayurvedic diagnosis and therapeutic practices. Students receive extensive training in cadaveric dissection, microscopic anatomy, osteology, radiological anatomy, and comparative anatomical studies.
The curriculum integrates traditional Ayurvedic anatomical concepts such as Srotas, Marma, Dhatu structure, and Sharir Siddhanta with contemporary anatomical sciences to create a strong interdisciplinary academic foundation. Scholars are trained in teaching methodologies, anatomical demonstrations, practical laboratory work, and research-based learning approaches.
The institute provides well-equipped dissection halls, anatomy museums, histology laboratories, research facilities, digital learning resources, and experienced faculty members that support advanced academic and practical training. Students actively participate in seminars, workshops, dissertation work, academic presentations, and research projects related to anatomy and Ayurvedic structural sciences.
Research-oriented education forms an important component of the program, encouraging postgraduate scholars to explore scientific validation and clinical relevance of Ayurvedic anatomical principles in modern healthcare systems.
Graduates of MD Sharir Rachana can pursue careers in Ayurvedic medical colleges, research institutions, anatomy departments, healthcare education, academic administration, medical writing, and interdisciplinary medical research sectors.
