Decision Taken in MOHFW 09.06.2008 • MOH&FW needs to set up, an autonomous National Institute of Health Care Engineering and Architecture (NIHEA) in PGIMER Chandigarh for running these two programmes •   Since these are flagship initiative of MoH&FW under the wider field of public health and first time in South East Asia • Theentire funding for the courses will be supported from the MoH&FW budget.

  6. Meanwhile PGI shall take necessary step to setup infrastructure for NIHEA in the campus ,& finalize & appoint permanent faculty for the courses including the Course Director for making it function like autonomous Institute under MOH&FW. • Since the course is of Technical in Nature and being in the campus of Medical Institute, approval of AICTE is obtained • Since MoH&FW is funding, it will appoint a Monitoring Committee of Experts as is practiced in ICMR and other centrally funded schemes.

  7. Objectives of the Courses • Impart specialization in professional education and capacity building for Health Facilities planning, and all aspects of Infrastructure Development • Contribute to policy development, health facilities infrastructure planning and development in the country.

  8. Conduct Academic Research leading to efficient and effective health facilities infrastructure development models from Rural to Metropolitan / Regional level enveloping all aspects from Concept to Commissioning and then Managing efficiently healthcare infrastructure and assets.

  10. Establish National & International Networking of concerned stakeholders to develop platform for achieving mutually relevant objectives including Hospitals, Healthcare Tourism, new generation Pharmaceuticals and Biotech industry, Diagnostics infrastructure

  11. Proposed Courses • Master’s Degree Programs in Health Facilities Planning and Designing with emphasize on architectural, designs, organics, sustainability, patients environment, quality of life in hospitals etc. • Master’s Degree Programs in Healthcare Engineering and Management with emphasize on Asset and Infrastructure (O&M) of Hospital Engineering Services, Healthcare Project / Construction Management etc. (buildings, plants, machinery, services, equipments, health estate).

  12. It is proposed that two courses be conducted which should run concurrently as companion courses. • Some of the courses may be common to both but the application and the emphasis should be different. • The intent is that the two courses would enrich each other.

  15. Teaching Methodology • Taught course are taken under Lectures categories and Seminars • Project based courses are taken under Studio and Laboratory programs to provide practical exposure. • Non-credit Extension / specialist lectures from visiting faculty and visits to hospitals in India, industries. • Online interface with experts from U.K., Australia, U.S.A., Singapore, Dubai, Hong Kong etc
