HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST UNIVERSITY FOR MBBS IN CHINA ? WHAT ARE THE RECENT TRENDS ?

Once the student completes the plus-two education in India and plans to join medicine abroad, there are several queries that comes to one’s mind ; which is the preferred country to do MBBS abroad ? Which are the Universities that offers the best medical education? Which are the Universities that offer scholarships? How about the safety in these countries? And many more…

 This decision would count as one of the most important decisions you have ever taken. Hence its important to have a deeper insight about the recent trends and facts before taking such a decision. We would provide some authentic information about the recent trends with MBBS in China and its validity in India. 

 The Medical Council of India requires every Indian student to apply for an Eligibility certificate prior to joining abroad. It means that the student needs to inform the MCI in writing, that he/she plans to join a particular University in China & submits all the academic certificates to MCI for due verification. 

 The MCI has updated the list of Recognised Medical Universities Abroad in their website. The lists can be assessed country-wise & it serves as one of the best tool for a student to confirm the recognition of the University in India. It is advisable to join any Medical University that is listed with the MCI website. If the student joins a University that is not yet listed with MCI, he/she may not be granted a REGISTRATION to work as a doctor in India. 

 Once the student gets the list of approved Medical Universities in China through the MCI website, the confusion regarding “The BEST MEDICAL UNIVERSITY IN CHINA FOR INDIAN STUDENTS” doesnt seem to get over. The MCI lists about 234 approved Universities in China , then how to chose the best among them? 

According to the Ministry of Education China website, the Chinese Ministry only approves about 48 Universities to conduct MBBS course in English medium. These figures are in accordance to the list updated in 2016. The English medium MBBS list for 2017 is yet to be updated in the Ministry of Education China website. 

 MCI recognised 234 Medical Universities in China, but China approves only 48 Medical Universities to conduct English medium MBBS programme. Since the 48 medical universities are properly authorized by the Ministry of Education to carry out English Medium MBBS, they tuition fees is relatively higher than the other approved Medical Universities. 

 What if the student is looking for the cheapest available option to join MBBS abroad? In such case, the student can join any one of the Universities in China which is listed in the MCI website and the one that offers the lowest tuition fees. Eventhough these college may not be approved to run the course in English, they are allowed to conduct courses as Bi-lingual medium ( English & Chinese). 

 However, in reality most of the Universities approved to run a bi-lingual MBBS programme is currently running the courses in English medium to satisfy the requirement of foreign students at the University.

 We shall update further with more informations regarding the recognitions, accreditations and student life at various medical universities in China. Stay tuned !

FAVOURITE DESTINATIONS FOR MEDICAL EDUCATION ABROAD FOR INDIAN STUDENTS

Since more than  a decade, a huge number of Indian students are  going  for Medicine abroad every year .The  main reason is the limited  number of  seats  in  Indian Govt.Medical  colleges and huge donation and fees imposed by private medical colleges. Huge number of  students  appear  in  All India based Entrance Examination ,but  less than 10% of  the  students  succeed  in  this . The next option for these students  are  the high budget  private colleges.But majority of these students are  from  middle class Indian families, who couldn’t afford the high fees in Indian Private Medical Colleges. So  M.B.B.S admission  for these  students become  a  day dream.
But now the situation has changed.The students from India prefer to do M.B.B.S from countries like CHINA, MAURITIUS, PHILIPPINES, UKRAINE,RUSSIA, SOUTH AMERICA  etc. The main  attraction  of  these places why  students  choosing  these  countries  are  <Affordable Fee structure> <Payable in Instalments><Medium of  instruction  is English ><International recognition>.   
           In a recent  survey,  it is noticed that the first preference of the students going  abroad for Medicine is China .All the  50  odd  universities  recognised  by The Medical Council  of India are run by Chinese Government. The students enjoy the privilege of making use of world class infra structure as well as  they make friendship with  students from different nationalities.The International  student community  in  Chinese Medical colleges are  mostly  from India, Sri lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Mauritius and various other African countries.The universities  in China are recognised worldwide and are listed with W.H.O,I.M.E.D etc.
        Another preferable destination for Medical Education is Mauritius. As we know, MAURITIUS is one of the finest tourist destination attracting  people from various places and recently there has been several advances in Education sector too. Now students from  different nationalities are pursuing  M.B.B.S in MAURITIUS.The notable thing  is that the duration of the course four and a half years only .It is comparatively  lower when compared to other Medicine abroad options. More importantly, the majority of faculties are from India too.

It is interesting to note that despite of the political situation in Russia & Ukraine,  the number of students who choose to do medicine in these countries is not altered. Still a good number of students are preferring Russia & Ukraine as well. 
 The great advantage for  PHILIPPINES medical education is their lower tuition fees. Another advantage is that the common language using for communication in Philippines is English. These factors are attracting students to PHILIPPINES. 
 There still remains plenty of other options like South America , Czech Republic, Krygisthan etc.
 It may be quite confusing for students to chose from the plentiful options they have at the time of admissions. Contact us today for a detailed presentation of the feasible options for your career abroad. We are here to help you 24*7.
