The Institute of Medical Sciences (IMS-BHU) is one of the six institutes of Banaras Hindu University, located in Varanasi, India. It functions as the medical school of the university and offers education and training across three faculties: the Faculty of Medicine, the Faculty of Dental Sciences, and the Faculty of Ayurveda.
Like other institutions that form part of Banaras Hindu University, IMS-BHU is residential and co-educational. The institute combines modern medical education with traditional systems of medicine through its dedicated Faculty of Ayurveda, reflecting the broader academic character of the parent university.
In 2018, the Institute of Medical Sciences was upgraded to the status of an All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) by the Government of India.
