About National Institute of Unani Medicine
National Institute of Unani Medicine is an ayush college in Bengaluru, Karnataka, established in 1984. It is affiliated to Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Karnataka. Its programmes are approved by the Ministry of Ayush. National Institute of Unani Medicine offers 15 programmes at postgraduate level. These include M.D. (Moalajat), M.S. (Ilmul Qabalat wa Amraze Niswan), M.D. (Tahaffuzi wa Samaji Tib), M.D. (Ilmul Advia) and M.D. (Kulliyat-Umoor-e-Tabiya), among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 52 seats. NIUM Bengaluru is an autonomous Ministry of AYUSH institute and an NCISM-recognized Unani institution at Kottigepalya, Magadi Main Road, Bengaluru. The 180-bed hospital and NABH status are college-reported in the official brochure. Older annual-report material refers to CCIM; current regulatory identity is NCISM. No current 2026-27 permission letter, faculty census, academic attendance/medium/exam rule, or research metric specific to that session was located in the cited material. This Bengaluru unit is an autonomous national institute under the Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India, and is distinct from NIUM's satellite campus in Ghaziabad. The institute was established in 1984; academic activities commenced in 2004-05. The official sources reviewed do not establish a current 2026-27 NCISM permission status or sanctioned intake. The official overview reports a 180-bed IPD; this is a college/institute-reported figure and does not imply intake. NABH accreditation is mentioned in the institute brochure, but no NAAC/NIRF/NBA evidence naming this unit was established.
