Transforming Healthcare Education: Emversity Expands to 35+ Centres and 13 University Partnerships
A Big Step Forward in Healthcare Learning
For years, healthcare education in India was mostly about textbooks and theory. Emversity wanted to break that pattern and it seems to be working. What began as just 9 Centres has now grown into 35+ Centres of Excellence, backed by 13 university tie-ups.
The idea isn’t just to open more campuses. It’s about building a new generation of healthcare workers who can step into real jobs with confidence, instead of struggling to bridge the “classroom-to-hospital” gap.
And the need is clear. The World Health Organization (WHO) has pointed out more than once that India still doesn’t have enough qualified health workers, especially outside the big metros (WHO India).
Why This Expansion Matters
The reality is, plenty of students graduate every year but lack real-world experience. Emversity is trying to change that by making learning practical, accessible, and employability-first.
Here’s what the expansion means:
-
Students in more cities can now access advanced training
-
Courses are designed around skills and jobs, not just exams.
-
Learning happens in smart classrooms, VR-based labs, and simulated hospital environments.
Back in 2019, NITI Aayog highlighted in its “Health System for a New India” report that India’s healthcare sector urgently needs a skilled workforce that’s ready for patient care, not just theory (NITI Aayog Report). This kind of approach fits right into that vision.
Where You Can Study: 35+ Centres Across India
With Centres now in major healthcare hubs, students no longer need to travel far from home to get quality training. Some of the cities include:
Bangalore
· Hyderabad
· Pune
· Mumbai
· Nagpur
· Jaipur
· Kochi
· Ranchi
· Bareilly
· Lucknow
· Zirakpur
· Vizag
· Indore
· Srinagar
· Kolkata
· Rajkot
· Chennai
· Delhi NCR
· Hubbali
· Nashik
Each location comes with labs, VR tools, and placement cells, so that moving from a classroom to a real job feels seamless.
Courses That Lead to Careers
Instead of treating degrees as the final goal, Emversity focuses on career pathways. Its School of Health Sciences covers a wide range of programs such as:
-
Anaesthesia & OT Technology
-
Medical Radiology & Imaging Technology
-
Medical Laboratory Technology
-
Emergency Medical Technology
-
Dialysis Technology
-
Health Psychology
-
Physiotherapy
-
Nursing
-
Cardiovascular Technology
-
Respiratory Technology
-
Healthcare Management
Every program blends theory with hospital exposure. A KPMG–WHO study on India’s healthcare workforce stresses that such work-integrated learning is essential if we want a workforce ready for 2047 and beyond (KPMG Report).
Built on Strong Partnerships
A big part of Emversity’s model is its partnerships. With 13 universities and more than 100 healthcare organizations including Fortis, Narayana Health, Accord Hospitals, and Oasis Fertility students get:
-
Degrees from well-recognized NAAC A+ / A universities.
-
1–2 years of on-the-job training.
-
Paid internships that help with expenses.
-
Real-world exposure before graduation.
It’s not just lecturesit’s actual hospital work, side by side with professionals.
How Students Benefit
Take, for example, a physiotherapy student. During the week, they might be learning anatomy in class. By the weekend, they’re inside a partner hospital, helping with patient exercises under a mentor’s supervision. By the time they finish the degree, they already know the ropes.
That’s the difference a hands-on approach makes. Students don’t just pass exams they leave job-ready.
The Road Ahead
Emversity isn’t stopping at 35 Centres. The long-term plan is to reach every major city, so students don’t have to choose between quality education and staying close to home.
And this expansion couldn’t come at a better time. A 2021 Biomed Central study showed how unevenly India’s health workforce is spread, urban areas are crowded, while many smaller cities face serious shortages (BMC Study). By setting up Centres in diverse regions, Emversity is helping close that gap.
Final Takeaway
Healthcare is evolving fast, and education has to keep pace. Emversity’s expansion signals a shift towards skill-driven, real-world training, the kind that benefits students, hospitals, and patients alike.
For students who want a career in healthcare, this isn’t just about a degree. It’s about stepping into the industry with confidence, skills, and real experience.
