A.L.N. Rao Memorial Ayurvedic Medical College

About Institution

Aroor Ravi Memorial Ayurvedic Research Centre â?? ARMARC â?? is prehaps the only research centre of its kind in the private sector that is attached to an Ayurvedic College. The vision of ARMARC is to grow into a Centre of Excellence in Research that nourishes the fields of Education and Practice in Ayurveda. By locating itself within the campus of any Ayurvedic College and Hospital, it seeks to establish the link between Ayurvedic Research, Education and Practice. The research activities undertaken by ARMARC must essentially be looked upon as an experiment that seeks to harmonize the three key areas of Research, Education and Practice in the field of Ayurveda.
The logic behind the Ayurveda experiment is very simple. The unhappy situation that we see in the field of Ayurvedic practice today stems from grave problems in Ayurvedic education, leading to improper understanding of Ayurveda. A proper understanding of Ayurveda can be achieved through systematic research.
