Medicine & Health Sciences

Hi Himanshu,
Ayurveda or 'Science of Life, is said to have originated in India in the pre-vedic period. Bachelor of Ayurveda, Medicine and Surgery (B.A.M.S.) is a medical degree in India, conferred to those who have studied the integrated system of modern medicine and traditional ayurveda.
The degree is of five and half years duration, including 1 year internship after passing 12th Science.
This time-tested method of maintaining health continues to be relevant even in this modern period. Nowadays Ayurveda has become very popular among the tourists especially foreigners. It is a part of a new movement towards a global medicine that includes the best developments from the whole world. As modern medicine with its strong synthetic chemical drugs fails to combat nature, there is rapid and progressive acceptance of this system. Patients from all over the world are coming to India for Ayurveda treatment. The number of Pharmaceutical companies manufacturing Ayurvedic medicines is increasing and the medicines are getting popular even in other countries. More and more 'Pancha Karma Centres' are coming up for serving the tourists especially foreigners.
With the popularity of the system the demand for Ayurvedic doctors are on the rise. Once you have passed BAMS, you can apply for post graduate programmes. The Post graduate programmes are conducted by many recognised institutions and have duration of 3 years leading to degrees of Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda (M.D. (Ayu)) and Master of Surgery in Ayurveda (M.S. (Ayu)). Post-graduate programs are structured into 16 branches leading to a Doctorate in Ayurveda.
