MD Speaks

Managing Director's Message

We are proud to have tie-ups with prestigious institutions such as Sains Malaysia University (SMU), AB Shetty Institute of Dental Sciences, and Malabar Cancer Center, Thalassery (MCC) for student and staff exchange programs. These collaborations offer far-reaching benefits for our postgraduate students, providing them with opportunities for regular visits to these institutions. Such interactions significantly enhance their learning experience and professional growth.

Our Prosthodontics department at Educare Institute of Dental Sciences conducted an Implantology course, which was highly beneficial for all attendees. The course provided valuable knowledge and practical skills in the field of Implantology. The certificates for this course were issued by Sains Malaysia University (SMU), adding significant value to the participants’ professional credentials. We look forward to organizing more such courses in collaboration with Sains Malaysia University (SMU) in the future.

I am delighted to welcome the new batch of undergraduates and postgraduates, especially as we celebrate our 18th batch of undergraduates this year. Your dedication and passion will shape the future of dental healthcare, and I am so excited to be part of this transformative journey of yours.

Recently, we concluded a successful IOS South India Ortho PG Convention. Leading orthodontists and postgraduate students from across India participated, sharing invaluable insights into the latest advancements in orthodontics. Events like these highlight our commitment to staying at the forefront of dental education and fostering a vibrant academic community.

As we welcome new students, I must also express my concern about the NEET examination system. The delays in the admissions process have caused unwanted anxiety and insecurity among students. It is crucial that we find a permanent solution to ensure a smooth, timely, and fair admission process.

Our student-friendly campus values extracurricular activities, fostering a well-rounded education that extends beyond academics. We have dedicated counselors and mentors to help our students to manage stress and maintain a healthy balance.

At Educare, we take ragging very seriously. Our anti-ragging policy is very strict, and we ensure that all students feel safe and supported. The safety of our students is a top priority for us, and we are committed to providing a secure and nurturing environment.

I am pleased to state that we have signed an MoU with AB Shetty Institute of Dental Sciences Mangalore for a student exchange program in the department of Orthodontics. As part of this initiative, our Post Graduate students attended a week-long program at AB Shetty Institute of Dental Sciences in the month of May 2024 facilitating enriching collaboration and knowledge exchange between students and faculty members. We are committed to continuing and expanding this collaboration in the future.

The Department of Prosthodontics is proud to be associated with Malabar Cancer Centre (MCC), the only tertiary care oncology centre in the Malabar area. Our postgraduates receive exposure to world-class oncology treatment protocols, with a special emphasis on the pre-operative dental needs and treatment of cancer patients. They also observe and assist in post-operative procedures for maxillofacial rehabilitation, including different types of prostheses and implant-based rehabilitation.

We look forward to seeing our students thrive in this supportive and dynamic environment. Together, let’s make this year a remarkable one filled with growth, learning, and success.

Warm regards,
