MBBS Scope

Both MS (Master of Surgery) and MD (Doctor of Medicine) are postgraduate medical degrees, but they differ in terms of focus and specialization.

MD is a postgraduate degree that focuses on medical specialities. It is usually pursued by doctors who want to specialize in clinical and non-surgical fields. On the other hand, MS is a postgraduate degree that emphasizes surgical specialities. It is pursued by doctors who are interested in becoming surgical specialists and performing surgical procedures. 

Candidates can check the table below to know about the comparison between the two courses.

Hype for postgrad medical courses really depends on what's happening in healthcare, new tech in medicine, and what society needs most. But some courses always stay top-tier.

• MD/MS in General Medicine

• MD/MS in Pediatrics

• MD/MS in Obstetrics and Gynecology

• MD/MS in Anesthesiology

• DM/ MCh in Cardiology, Neurology, and Gastroenterology

Yes, it is possible to find work as an MBBS graduate without undertaking a postgraduate (PG) pathway.  

MBBS graduates can work as general practitioners. Medical officers in hospitals and clinics, or within government health services are also options.  

There are also opportunities available in public health, research, and healthcare administration/public service. Most commonly the work opportunities are available through a pharmaceutical agency, medical writing, and health insurance companies.

No, doing a PG degree after an MBBS is not compulsive. Still, those interested in practicing in superspeciality or looking forward to teaching fields will mandatorily require it. PG courses are oriented toward advanced training in the art, providing specialised knowledge and ending with certifications like MD or MS, depending on the kind of special course chosen for pursuit. Many medical professionals opt for PG to gain greater expertise and qualify for more specialised roles in healthcare.

AIIMS Madurai does not offer any PG courses considering the fact that the institute is relatively new as compared to other AIIMS of the country. A candidate who is interested in completing his PG can opt for other AIIMS available in India.

After completing MBBS, students can pursue wide range of career choices but first they need to complete their 1 year mandatory internship period in the college. After that students can take role as professors or medical practitioners in government institutes. Students can also go for PG courses or work as Junior residents in private hospitals or research assistant to doctors.

There are vast career options available for MBBS students. Students can work in hosiptals, governments armed forces, nursing homes, etc. Some of the popular job roles available for AIIMS Kalyani are mentioned below:

• Medical writers
• Healthcare Informatics
• Health Administrators
• Medical Researchers
