About Department

Forensic medicine and toxicology is a Department where medical science meets forensic practice. In many cases, the role of the physician goes beyond treatment; it is also important to properly interpret and document medical evidence in cases of injury, accident, suspicious death, or poisoning. For the same reason, subject study plays an important role in MBBS education.

At PMCH, our focus is on providing students with a practical understanding of medico-legal contexts. Through case discussions and concept-based learning, the experienced faculty at PMCH clarify injury mechanisms, causes of death, and the physiological effects of toxic exposures. Although theoretical knowledge is necessary, true understanding is achieved when students learn how to make observations and statements in the context of real issues.

Vision

At PMCH, our vision is to produce physicians who can play their role in medico-legal matters through thorough assessment, responsible documentation, and sound scientific judgment.

Mission

  • Provide students with a thorough and practical understanding of forensic principles and toxicology.
  • Provide a strategic approach to careful examination and documentation in medico-legal matters.
  • Develop the ability to accurately analyse and present clinical evidence.
  • Prepare future physicians for their medico-legal responsibilities.
