The admission process is through entrance rest. This course is only in 2 colleges in Kerala. 1st one in Palakkad and 2nd is Pookode. Anyone who secures 50 percent can appear for the test. there is only 25 seat on each campus. The main campus was in Palakkad and it provide placement to large poultry farms such as Venkis, sugunan, Kerala Chicken, Brahma Giri, etc. This is a 3-year professional degree program with vast career opportunities.
Firstly,i chose this accidentally as i was unable to get into the profession i want to.But later on ,i started enjoying my profession and course.Now i am fully satisfied with my college.Basically the course is similar to any other medical course with a duration of 5 & 1/2 years including internship.There are only 80 seats for this course taken every year through NEET exams and by the KEAM .The faculties are super qualified and the teaching methods are too professional.The course is divided yearly and it requires 4 & 1/2 years of study with exams each year.The course will be easy to those who loves this profession and takes little effort for others
