Kanachur Group of Institutions B.Sc Anaesthesia & Operation Theatre Technology: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. KCET (Karnataka Common Entrance Test) is mandatory for state quota seats at Kanachur KIAHS, as the college is affiliated to RGUHS and follows the Karnataka government's admission process for allied health sciences courses. However, management quota seats are available and can be filled directly by the college without KCET. If you are from outside Karnataka or have not appeared for KCET, you can contact the college admissions office directly at 0824-2203331 to enquire about management quota availability and the direct admission process.

Ans. The B.Sc Anaesthesia & OT Technology programme at Kanachur is structured as 3 years of academic study followed by 1 year of mandatory internship, making the total duration 4 years. During the internship year, students are placed at the attached Kanachur Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) hospital for hands-on clinical training in live OT and ICU settings. No separate stipend is paid during the internship year, and the internship fee is included in the overall course fee structure. The degree is awarded by RGUHS only after successful completion of all 4 years including the internship.

Ans. Yes, Kanachur Group of Institutions provides separate hostel facilities for boys and girls on campus. Hostel accommodation is not mandatory and is optional. The hostel fee is approximately Rs. 80,000 per year, which covers accommodation and mess charges. Students who choose to stay off-campus can do so, but given the college's location in Natekal (away from the main city), most outstation students prefer to stay in the hostel. It is advisable to confirm hostel availability and the latest fee at the time of admission, as seats may be limited.

Ans. Graduates of this programme can work as Anaesthesia Technologists, Operation Theatre Technologists, or Critical Care Assistants in hospitals, nursing homes, and surgical centres across India and abroad. Entry-level salaries typically range from Rs. 3-4 LPA, with experienced professionals earning Rs. 6-8 LPA. There is strong demand for AOTT professionals in countries like the UAE, UK, and USA, and graduates can pursue international opportunities with additional certifications. For higher studies, graduates can pursue M.Sc in Anaesthesia, M.Sc in Critical Care, or Healthcare Management programmes.

Ans. Yes, Kanachur Group of Institutions is a Muslim minority institution established under the Kanachur Islamic Education Trust.

Additionally, minority students are eligible for the Karnataka Minority Welfare Scholarship and SSP scholarships, which can significantly reduce the financial burden. SC/ST students are also eligible for post-matric scholarships. The college administration actively assists students in applying for these scholarships after admission.
