          Abstract

          1. The migration of doctors from Medical College, Baroda, is studied in detail. 2. From 1949 to 1972, 584 doctors migrated to other countries and only twenty-nine doctors have returned so far. The incidence of migration is to the extent of 39-75%. 3. Among those who migrated 77-7% have gone to U.S.A. and 11-7% have gone to the U.K. 4. Ninety-four women graduates out of 241 passed prior to 1971 are abroad.. 5. The majority migrate for better and more comfortable living conditions. A small number migrate for better research facilities and encouragement. Those who are denied the opportunity of a post-graduate training also migrate. 6. Migration of doctors, though universal, is disturbingly high in India and a major cause of concern to the government and the educationist.
