The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) Chandigarh was conceived in
1960 as a center of excellence which would endeavour to develop patterns of teaching in postgraduate
medical education in as many branches as possible and attempt to produce specialists in several
disciplines of medicine. It was also envisaged that these specialists would spread out in the country in
various medical colleges and medical institutions and impart medical education of highest standard to the
students and set up nucleus of excellence in their own institutions. The PGIMER was also given the
responsibility to broaden the horizons of medical knowledge by intensive research in the field of health.
