About
JSS Medical College
Since 1984, JSS Medical College has grown into more than a place of learning. It is where the first heartbeat heard through a stethoscope becomes unforgettable, where a question can grow into research, and where medicine slowly stops feeling like a subject and begins to feel like a calling. As a constituent college of JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research, it brings together modern laboratories, simulation centres, clinical exposure; and a strong research culture, while never losing sight of the people who give medicine its meaning.
Somewhere between understanding disease and witnessing human resilience, students discover that medicine is not simply a profession we enter, but a responsibility we grow into.
It is in this spirit of curiosity, compassion and shared learning that we welcome you to Asclepius 9.0. For these few days, may JSS Medical College become more than our campus. May it become yours too.

About JSS Hospital
A hospital built not only to treat illness, but to stand beside those who face it.
From its beginnings in 1963 as a modest health centre, JSS Hospital, Mysuru, has grown into a major tertiary-care institution with approximately 1,800 beds, advanced diagnostics, critical-care facilities, modern operating theatres and multidisciplinary care across specialties. Yet its true story is not told by numbers. It lives in the rhythm of its corridors, in the families waiting with hope, in the doctors searching for answers, and in the students discovering that every patient can teach something no textbook ever could.
As the teaching hospital of JSS Medical College, it is where knowledge meets reality and medicine becomes deeply human. Here, students learn not only diagnosis and treatment, but also patience, humility and compassion. Behind every investigation is a person waiting for an answer, and behind every act of care is a reminder that healing begins long before a cure is found.
Welcome to JSS Hospital, where science works through skilled hands, and humanity gives it meaning.
