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.

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 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.
They allow colleges or universities to grant MBBS, MS, MD, BDS, MDS
or any Graduate or PG degree or diploma provided those colleges are
strictly adhering to the standards set by the Medical Council of India.
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.

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. The time a new

The
literacy level in India is the highest compared to anywhere else in the
world. The reason for the growth of literacy is because of the umpteen
numbers of various types of Colleges and Universities offering different
kinds of education in various fields beginning from Medicine to
Engineering to Astronomy and Forestry.
We have plenty of Colleges and Universities offering higher education opportunities
In Medicine, Dentistry, Engineering etc offering different types of
professional degrees such as MBBS, MD, MS, BDS, MDS, and all kinds of
Graduate and Post Graduate degrees. So is the case with the braches of
engineering too. |
