Pratap University, Jaipur is all set to inaugurate a well equipped Maharana Pratap Medicity across 40 acres of its campus in Chandwaji, Jaipur. This ambitious project will mark a significant milestone in the expansion of its academic and healthcare infrastructure.
The integrated healthcare and medical education facility will bring together a 600-bedded multi-specialty hospital, a 100-bedded Ayurveda Hospital and teaching facilities for a range of healthcare-related programmes.
Maharana Pratap MediCity is being planned as an integrated ecosystem for medical education, clinical training and healthcare services. The facility will offer academic programmes in MBBS, Ayurveda through BAMS, BSc Nursing, GNM and several paramedical disciplines, including physiotherapy, medical laboratory technology and technician programmes.
It will also offer the Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry (B.V.Sc. & A.H.) programme. This will be an important programme for students pursuing careers in veterinary medicine.
The MediCity is designed to combine classroom learning with practical exposure. It will give students access to clinical and healthcare environments as part of their education. The initiative will also focus on developing trained manpower for hospitals and healthcare institutions across Rajasthan, particularly in areas where skilled nursing and paramedical professionals are in demand.
The 600-bedded multi-specialty hospital will be developed in two phases. The first phase is expected to start operations by the end of 2026. However, the second phase is planned for July-August 2027. The academic programmes in medical, nursing, paramedical, Ayurveda and veterinary disciplines are expected to commence from the 2027-28 academic session.
