Georgia is a beautiful country situated in the Caucasus region of Eurasia. Located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe, it is bounded to the west by the Black Sea, to the north by Russia, to the south by Turkey and Armenia, and to the southeast by Azerbaijan. The capital and largest city of the country is Tbilisi.
The
country enjoys a pleasant climate throughout the year, not exceeding 20-25
degree celcius in summers, providing a suitable environment for studying and
daily activities. It also is now a favourite holiday destination, offering many tourist attractions that appeal to all
interests.Tbilisi's
Rustaveli Avenue, Narikala Fortress, Stepantsminda and Mount Kazbeg are few of the many places which have attracted
international attention.
Having geographical location and the
climatic conditions to its advantage, the country has now become one of the
preferred
destinations for foreign students, a bulk of them from India, to pursue
their Medical
degree abroad .With many batches already passed, Georgia sees many more new
in-coming students every year.
There are many universities offering
Medicine in
the main cities of the country, all of which are registered medical
institutions. Most of the universities are privately owned, providing
state-of-the-art infrastructure and learning facilities. Universities provide
either 5 or 6 year Medical Course leading to a MD degree (Equivalent to undergraduate
MBBS degree).
Students need to earn a total of 360
credit points in order to graduate successfully. Currently, most universities
provide a 6 years course, in which students score around 60 credit points in a
year, but efforts are being taken up to let students earn around 75 credit
points in a year so as to decrease the duration of the course to 5 years.
Georgia offers an integrated program
for learning medicine, unlike other universities of the world which follow the
conventional methods. In the conventional method, the first 2.5-3 years of the
course is spent in teaching pre-clinical subjects and the later part of the
course offers a clinical exposure, but in the integrated approach followed by
Georgia, a few clinical subjects and topics are covered along with their
related pre-clinical subjects, providing ground for students to co-relate
topics and learn. This way, students can go and start learning at the hospital
right from their first year, unlike in other universities.Overall, the students
studying here in Georgia enjoy learning because teaching is more clinical
oriented rather than classroom oriented.
The students enjoy summer vacations
beginning at the end of July and winter vacations beginning in the month of February.
In short, Georgia is a very suitable
place for pursuing
medicine career abroad, given the climate, the lifestyle and the quality of
education.

and visa procedures. Although many Countries enjoy a Visa free arrival in
Georgia, you are required to have the entire set of documents, including the
