Higher Education In India
Education has ever been looked at Indian culture as a holistic effort since time immemorial. Indian culture is in the core attributes of education beginning from Gurukul type of education, where the disciples lived in the house of the Master who taught them what all things he knew for years together. And medical education has never been an exception since the period of Vedas.

As a tradition education is being looked upon holistically even today in India. The students practise it more holistically, whatever be its field. Be it Medicine, Engineering, Electronics, Humanities or any subject one is likely to get proper Higher Education in any of these fields.

Today the Higher Education is controlled and maintained by the University Grants Commission in India. They keep the quality of education on par with the international standards, which is a heritage India acquired since the British occupation.

Since then all fields of Education remained up-to-date in quality and in quantity. Medical education, Engineering education or any type of professional education be it, it remains so even now.


Medical Education In India


Medical Education in India is also given an important consideration from an international point of view. The Medical Council of India (MCI) controls medical Education in India.All States and all Universities or Colleges that give medical education is monitored and timely inspected by the Medical Council of India every year.

The MBBS course is of four and a half year’s and is followed by one year of Compulsory Rotating Residential Internship. The course is taken in three stages, following a short foundation course which provides basic principles of Communication, Ethics and Problem Based Learning. The first stage is for 12 months and covers the basic sciences of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry. The next stage is for 18 months and includes Pharmacology, Pathology, Microbiology and Forensic Medicine.


Entrance Exams
All professional courses are open for the right students. But the admission to such courses is open only through an Entrance Examination.

In India a degree like MBBS comes as under graduate, and MD or MS falls under PG. PG diploma courses are also available in various branches in medical education.

All higher education Degrees or Diplomas are valid internationally, especially in the field of medicine and engineering.

Medical and Dental council of India
Any education in degree level or postgraduate or PG level in Medicine is either classified into medicine or Dental. Both are controlled and monitored by Medical council and Dental council, separately.
A student has to keep a watch over the medical, dental and engineering entrance tests conducted in India by various States and Universities, if he or she has to get Admission to such courses. Usually the time for such tests will be around a couple of months earlier than the month in which the actual courses start in Medical Schools.
