The Psychiatry Department at Autonomous State Medical College, Kushinagar, is dedicated to the study and treatment of mental health disorders. As a critical branch of medical education, the department focuses on diagnosing, managing, and preventing psychiatric illnesses, while promoting mental health and well-being. Our goal is to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to address the growing challenges of mental health in diverse populations.

The department is staffed by experienced psychiatrists and mental health professionals who are committed to providing a well-rounded education. The curriculum covers various aspects of psychiatry, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychosis, addiction, child and adolescent psychiatry, and psychotherapy. Students are trained in patient interviews, mental status examinations, diagnosis, and treatment planning, with an emphasis on both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions.

The department offers clinical training in well-equipped psychiatric wards, outpatient clinics, and counseling centers, where students engage with patients under expert supervision. Practical exposure through case discussions, psychotherapy sessions, and community mental health initiatives allows students to gain a deeper understanding of mental health issues.

Research and innovation are encouraged, with students exploring new approaches to mental health care and the social determinants of mental illness. The Psychiatry Department aims to prepare future healthcare professionals to provide compassionate and evidence-based mental health care, contributing to improved quality of life for patients.
