College Of Nursing
A challenging profession, nursing is dedicated to the service of humanity. The college trains and prepares skillful nurses with a healing touch. The ability to understand and soothe are as important to a nurse's career as expertise in medical techniques and care. The teaching methods reflect this with interactivity and a stress on communicating with peers and faculty through discussions, symposia, seminars, panel discussions and debates. The sessions are made lively using multimedia projectors and other media to explain theory. Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) programs give students every opportunity to listen to experts and upgrade their knowledge.
The College of Nursing has a dedicated and understanding faculty team led by a highly qualified and experienced head.The undergraduate and postgraduate students have separate faculty to give them individual attention. The postgraduate faculty members include experts in all the specializations. This motivated team continually keeps themselves abreast with conferences and journals.Curriculum

All-round development is the mantra.

With leisure and group activities, they never feel the burden of the curriculum. The college also conducts yoga classes to help students relax body and mind.College of Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy is an area of medicine that steps beyond the 'prevention and cure' mantra to the maximal independence of the individual. It focuses on recuperation, giving confidence to people whose disability may be caused by a stroke, a mental illness, a physical and mental weariness because of cardiac or other illnesses or even a hereditary deficiency.
Occupational therapists must break through their patient's barriers and create a pathway for that person to return to normal life, at home and in the workplace. The therapist may design customized treatment programs or design special equipment that allows the disabled person to adapt to his disability.
Occupational therapy (OT) is a comparatively recent science, which has grown in popularity in the west. The demand for specialists is very high as people become more aware of the possibilities of science and how it can make a better way of life. As a student of OT you'll need to develop clinical skills and develop a flair for one-to-one communication. Towards this, the college has well-equipped clinics and learning aids for undergraduates and state of the art research facilities for postgraduate students.International recognition
The All-India Occupational Therapists Association (AIOTA) as well as World Federation of Occupational Therapists (WFOT) recognize SRM's occupational therapy program. These recognitions give a distinct advantage of being accepted at par in the world of medicine, which allows students to seek higher studies or employment abroad.
