Re: What is the future after MBBS?
Future Propects after MBBS are:
- Clinical practice with the degree:clinical practice can be in government sector or private sector
- Doing speciality after M.B.B.S:There are several types in going for a specialization. One is a 3 year M.D/M.S course, second one is a 2 year pgDiploma courses like Dch (diploma in child health), DGO(diploma in gynaecology and obstetrics, DMRD (diploma in medical radiology and diagnostics) e.t.c Apart form these two we have an option of NB(diploma of the national board) in all of the mentioned specialities. It is equivalent to doctorate (MD) course as it is also of 3 year duration
- USMLE (United states medical licensing exam):Clearing the united states medical licensing exam and taking up a speciality as an IMG (international medical graduate) there would be one great option to go.
- Hospital management in India:As the corporate culture in medical services is increasing, there would be a great demand for the hospital managers in the near future.
- Career as a researcher in India:This is one more radical option for the M.B.B.S graduates who have a passion for research. Premier research institutes in India are ICMR (Indian council for medical research), CIMAP, CCMB (center for cellular and molecular biology), St. Jhons research institute. You can also join WHO projects through contacts. Research can be broadly divided into basic science research( like lab work), cross sectional or other types of community studies or clinical trials or clinical research.
- Masters degrees other than clinical M.D s from countries like U.S:For this you need to have a valid GRE(general) score and a TOEFL score.
Research/PhD programs in U.S:Some important research areas are
1)Molecular biology
2)Biotechnology
3)Genetics
4)Microbiology and immunology
5)All para clinical subjects like anatomy, physiology, pathology e.t.c
6)Pharmacology related areas
7)Geriatrics
Some important universities are National institute of helath (NIH), Virginia university, Michigan university, Drexel university, University of south florida, North carolina state univeristy e.t.c
