The best years of my life at AIIMS. Excellent skill-based learning and peaceful nature vibes.

Placements: For B.Sc. hons nursing students, AIIMS Rishikesh offers high-quality and top-notch clinical experience, knowledgeable faculty, and advanced facilities. At AIIMS, internships are mandatory and help in learning skills and practice, which eventually helps in different competitive exams like NORCET, etc.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided here are a 24-hour central library, access to a virtual library, courts for various sports, smart classrooms, advanced skill labs, and a hospital for clinical exposure. Hostels are clean, hygienic, and optimum security is provided. Hostel food is also good as compared to other hostels. 24/7 emergency and ambulance service in case of any emergency or illness.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and qualified, M.Sc., Ph.D., etc. Focus is on Clinical and application-based learning. We follow the INC syllabus. The curriculum is year-wise with term1, term 2, and final professional examination. 50 percent is the minimum criteria for passing the exams.

Other: Apart from the formal college life, you get to experience the beauty of nature like mountains, River Ganga, various waterfalls, and many more places. You get to explore the different aspects of the city, including the spiritual, cultural, and many more. You get to breathe clean air and live a healthy life as our college provides facilities for a gym and yoga too.

College situated in Dev Bhoomi, the land of mother Ganga.

Placements: This course provides the degree of MBBS. After that, you can pursue post graduation, in which you will get good amount of money per month along with studies. You can become a medical officer and get a job. Genuinely speaking, becoming a doctor has great opportunities.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are good. We have air-conditioned, good seats, and good strength to accommodate people. Library has everything available like air-conditioning, all books, Wi-Fi, and a central library. There is no AC in hostel. Hostel for boys is okay, not as good as girls' hostel.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified. This institute of national importance has great academics. All the syllabus is relevant to the curriculum. Semester exams are tough enough. There are 4 exams in a year but there are many monthly assessments. Passing percentage is 50%.

Good infrastructure and amenities.

Placements: Regarding placements you need to job hunt on your own as there are no campus interviews or placement drives. This is a downside however with AIIMSonian tag being recognized finding opportunities can be easier though the path may still be challenging. For freshers the initial salary is usually minimal.

Infrastructure: Hostel accommodation is subject to availability so it is not guaranteed that you will get a hostel room. However there are many PG accommodations and rooms for rent in the surrounding areas near the campus. Rent can be a bit expensive since Rishikesh is a tourist destination but it is manageable because the tuition fees are minimal.

Faculty: Faculty members are good and interactive, which helps us learn more, especially since it is a tertiary care center. The patient outcomes are positive, and the center offers various facilities. The curriculum is top-notch, with monthly internal assessments conducted regularly. PPT presentations are also an integral part of the curriculum.

All you need to know about AIIMS Rishikesh.

Placements: Here at AIIMS Rishikesh, we have a batch of 125 students, including boys and girls. We have courses for MBBS, paramedical, and nursing. After completion of 4.5 years, we have an internship of 1 year, during which we are given a stipend of Rs. 35,000.

Infrastructure: Our college has various LTs where batch-wise regular classes are held. Our classes are well-equipped with central ACs, projectors, and green boards. The classroom is pretty well-equipped for the accommodation of 200 students. We also have department-wise labs, and the labs are well-equipped with all instruments and other facilities.

Faculty: The teachers here are very experienced and have a lot of teaching experience. Each professional year, we have two term exams: a pre-professional exam and a professional exam. Our exams consist of both theory and practicals. In theory, we have both MCQs and subjective questions. The passing marks are around 50 percent.

Other: I chose this college because of the scope of research it carries. Moreover, it is the second-best AIIMS. The ambience of this college is also pretty good compared to other colleges, where there is a lot of pollution and crowding. The scenic beauty of this college is also very good.

Inside of AIIMS rishikesh .

Placements: The placements are not provided by the college itself. You need to appear for an entrance examination named "NORCET" to get a job in AIIMS as a nursing officer. However, the college provides a 6-month internship, for which they will also pay you around 13,000 or 14,000. The internship is for all the students in the last year of college in the same AIIMS where you are practicing.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of AIIMS Rishikesh is great. Classrooms are large with comfortable desks, and all the classes have AC facilities and Wi-Fi. Labs are also nice, equipped with great technologies. The library is huge, containing lots of books of your liking and course materials. Hostels are compulsory. Hostel rooms are quite large and well-furnished, with the facility of a lift. There is a mess inside the hostel which is pure vegetarian, and a common mess outside the hostel. The mess menu is decent but not up to the mark; I mean, what else can you expect from mess food?

Faculty: The faculty is nice and experienced, with a great way of teaching. They are really helpful and interactive, making you understand the concept thoroughly. However, to be one step ahead, you need to study on your own, of course. The course curriculum is, of course, relevant; it will surely help you in the future to develop knowledge and skills to get a great job with a high pay. The semester exams are held on time, and the difficulty level is moderate.

Other: The best thing about this course is that it will make you skillful to encounter future demands. I wish one thing would be improved: while practicing in the clinical area, there should be the availability of a clinical instructor. And the best thing about this college is surely its campus and events. There are lots of events, both intra- and inter-college, named "Invicta" and "Pyrexia," respectively. The crowd is huge. There are lots of committees run by students for sports and cultural events, so don’t worry about extracurricular activities.

AIIMS rishikesh, B.Sc. (h) nursing .

Placements: After graduation, one can become a nursing officer in several government hospitals by clearing an exam called NORCET and can also apply to any private hospital. Alternatively, you can opt for opportunities abroad and become a registered nurse, which is, personally, the best option.

Infrastructure: Overall, the infrastructure is quite good. Wi-Fi is available in the college and hospital but not in the hostel. The campus is quite huge with a lot of greenery, including facilities for a gym, tennis court, volleyball, basketball, and badminton courts. The library is also present inside the hospital area in the academic block.

Faculty: Teachers here are highly educated and helpful. They guide us in the clinical area as they are our clinical instructors as well. They are very considerate towards the students, and the exams are of moderate level, comprising written and practical exams.
