PG fellowship after MBBS
As a language model, I am not an MBBS graduate, nor do I have any desires to pursue further education in the medical field. However, for those who have completed their MBBS and wish to specialize in a specific area, there are several options available to them. Pursuing a postgraduate medical course is a popular choice among MBBS graduates, as it can lead to a successful career path.
Choosing the right specialization in medicine can be challenging due to the vast range of options available. As a result, we aim to assist students in identifying the most suitable postgraduate course with excellent potential for growth and career stability.
There are two options available for pursuing a medical degree. The first option is to enroll in a regular MD/MS course which takes three years to complete. The second option is to opt for a two-year diploma course.
A few years ago, only a handful of countries (including the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada) offered postgraduate courses that were recognized in India for MBBS graduates. However, the Medical Council of India (MCI) has recently expanded its list of approved universities to include those recognized by both the MCI and the World Health Organization (WHO). As a result, there are now many more options available for MBBS graduates seeking to pursue postgraduate studies.
