National Institute of Technology (NITKKR), Admission Notice 2016

About Us:

The Christian Medical College is an unaided, non-capitation, Christian minority, educational institution admitting students on merit on an all India basis. The Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore, was established and is maintained by the Christian Medical College Vellore Association, a registered society, formed by over 50 different Indian Christian churches and Christian organisations which run over 225 hospitals, health centres and dispensaries throughout the length and breadth of this country, many of which are situated in remote rural areas. The purpose of the Christian Medical College therefore is to train dedicated persons to manage, run and provide health care in the spirit of Christ through the mission hospitals. The motto of the institution is: “NOT TO BE MINISTERED UNTO, BUT TO MINISTER”.

The Christian Medical College, Vellore and the associated teaching hospitals were founded by Dr. Ida Sophia Scudder, the daughter of a medical missionary. She was born in 1870 to a missionary couple working in Tindivanam, sixty miles south of Chennai and later went back to America to complete her education. In 1890, she returned to India to attend to her ailing mother. On a single night during that visit, Ida was approached by three men seeking her help for their young wives in labour. As she could not offer help, and as local customs did not permit a male doctor to attend to them, young Ida was moved by the death of these three young Indian women during childbirth. She saw the suffering of women in India and realized the need in India for women doctors to attend to women whose traditions did not permit them to be treated by men. She went to America and obtained medical training, specializing in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. In 1900, she started her work with one room for inpatients in her father’s bungalow. Patients came in increasing numbers and the need for better facilities became obvious. She set about winning support for her cause and in 1902 the Mary Taber Schell Memorial Hospital was built to accommodate 40 patients. In 1924, the present town campus was acquired and a 267 bed hospital was built.
