Ashwini Ayurvedic Medical College & Research Center

If you head over to Saraswathipuram in Tumakuru, you’ll find us at Ashwini Ayurvedic Medical College & Research Center. We’ve been set up here in Tumkur for quite some time now, focusing on the traditional ways of Ayurveda. The campus has a lot of greenery, which makes sense given what we teach. It’s not just a place where students sit in lectures; we have the research side of things too. You’ll often see people walking around in lab coats or students studying under the trees. The smell of herbs is pretty common around the halls. We’re tucked away in a residential-feeling part of town, so it stays relatively quiet, which is nice for a medical facility. We have a lot of books and old charts on the walls that explain different treatments. The reception area is usually busy with people asking about courses or looking for the research department. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait a bit for the backup to kick in, but that's just part of living in this area. We aren't a big corporate hospital; we're a college where people come to learn about ancient medicine. The staff here mostly lives nearby, so we're all very familiar with the neighborhood. It’s a busy place, especially during exam season when the library stays full until late. We just keep doing what we do every day without much fuss or fanfare.
