The internship is called MBBS Internship (Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship - CRMI), 12 Months duration. It is compulsory after completing MBBS (4.5 years). Students perform rotating hands-on activities in various departments like Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Emergency Medicine.

Interns will be working under senior doctors with responsibilities for real patients, surgeries, basic medical procedures, and emergencies. The internship provides a practical experience that links theory and clinical practice while preparing students to be autonomous practitioners or for higher learning such as MD/MS.
