Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences

Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences is a private deemed university in Chennai whose centre of gravity is health sciences: its dental college has topped the NIRF dental rankings in recent years, and medicine, dentistry and pharmacy run alongside an engineering school. The university holds an A++ grade from NAAC. Its teaching hospitals give health-sciences students clinical exposure on campus, and admission to medical and dental programmes is through NEET, with fees at private deemed-university levels — far above government colleges, which is the standard trade-off for students who miss state-quota seats. Chennai offers a large healthcare and technology economy around it. It suits students set on dentistry or medicine who need a private route and want an institution with documented national standing in dental education.
