The Postgraduate Diploma in Family Medicine is exclusively for freshers in doctor.
Placements: The package offered to students after their course completion was typically between 5.3 LPA and 29.6 LPA for the entire year. During the training period, it generally started from Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 40,000 per month. Guaranteed placements were provided to all students who had undergone proper training without any black marks.
Infrastructure: I'm sure this was one of the most restricted campuses, following a specific set of principles to make the campus value-based. They gave priority to building disciplined students over other aspects. A sports complex with features like indoor and outdoor games, as well as a badminton complex, was included.
Faculty: The overall duration of the Postgraduate Diploma in Family Medicine was two years, which specifically dealt with the primary care of patients. Finally, professionally proven and experienced lecturers were arranged to train and handle the students in a good way.

CMC gave meaning to my life.
Placements: After completing my training period at CMC Vellore now I am working as a full-time professional on the same campus. I am looking for abroad opportunities along with my work. A few of my friends started their hospital and a few of them were settled in some other states with government postings.
Infrastructure: The most trustable and renowned institutions in the field of medicine. All the records of the student like their achievements and awards are maintained in the system. There is no requirement for the students to go outside the campus for their necessities because everything is available within the campus.
Faculty: It's complex for me to do a post-graduate program along with training. I went through a lot of work pressure along with the course. Lectures are excellent in the profession of handling patients with good work ethics. They also wanted us to learn the same from them. They are known for their excellent practical training on live patients.
