Alternative Route For A Medical Professional
July 2019
|Careers 360
The new mantra of modern living is to go for the natural way and adopt pets as a stress buster. So, demand has become quite attractive for qualified professionals in Indian systems of medicines, homeopathy and veterinary sciences…
When one thinks of medicine as a profession, the qualifications that come to mind are MBBS or BDS. These are but two qualifications to reach that goal. Indian systems of medicine (ISM) namely Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani Tibb and Sowa Rigpa as well as Homeopathy are the other alternatives to a degree in allopathy. There is also Veterinary Sciences for one who wants to give medical care to animals, birds and livestock.
It is commonly known that admissions to MBBS and BDS are through NEET. What is relatively unknown is that entry to ISM and veterinary sciences are also through NEET.
Commonly called the Ayush courses, they come under the aegis of the Department of AYUSH, Government of India. The Central Council for Indian Medicine (CCIM) is the statutory regulatory body constituted under Indian Medicine Central Council (IMCC) Act 1970 to regulate the Ayush education at degree and postgraduate (PG) levels and their practice. They can be classified as:
AYURVEDA
The Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) is a course of 5 1/2 years’ duration, inclusive of 1-year mandatory internship. Students who complete the course become Ayurvedacharya.

Education's Heroes
In India, education is shaped not only by policies and institutions but also by the people who refuse to accept inequality as the norm. They come from courtrooms, laboratories, medical colleges, village squares, and city streets, bound by a belief that learning must be a right for all, not a privilege for a few. Some take on entrenched systems through litigation and advocacy; others create small but lasting change through libraries, community classrooms, and grassroots campaigns.
