Course Curriculum Overview
The curriculum is set by the NMC which is followed here. I chose the mbbs course because it is my dream to become a nephrologist.There are 19 department in the UG course divided into non clinical, para clinical and clinical. Every department has 10- 15 faculty members with a postgraduate degree and experience ranging from 5-35 yr. Additionally Every department has postgraduate students who also guide the undergraduate students in academics. The teaching is mixed. While the theory classes are monotonous, the pracricals and clinical postings are exciting and wonderful to get exposure to dealing with paitents and eliciting the history. Clinical postings are conducted for 3 hours every day starting from 9 am. Clinical postings are conducted in small groups of 10-15 students. This helps the students learn the concepts easily.
Internships Opportunities
The internship here is of 1 year duration. During this period the student is posted in various departments for a certain period of time as per the NMC rules and regulations. The internship here is decent. The major drawbacks of internship here are- No stipend Very less cases in most of the department. It is a golden opportunity for students here to utilize their free time in internship for pg entrance preparation.

Campus Life
Campus life is not very exciting as should be expected from a medical college. There are no clubs/ society being run here by the college students. However there is annual intercollege fest conducted n April which sees the participation of various colleges of Kalaburagi. It is a week long fest with various sports, literary and art competitions. There are occasionally DJ night organized by students on various festivals. Overall the social life is decent. The classroom are air conditioned and equipped with display projectors. However the library is not air conditioned. The library contains reference books and review books of all the subjects which will help the students for both university and entrance exams. There are a few journals to which the college has subscription to, but are not available regularly.
