Curriculum and Faculties:

Course Curriculum is very important today for any medical student and any medical college taking student from India. Student went in large numbers to European countries like Russia Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Armenia to study medicine. They could not do well in their Screening Test Exam conducted by the Medical Council of India (MCI) and the students failed in mass. This is because the students had to study in a different system and the MCI had conducted the exam in the pattern based on the syllabus and system of India.
To solve this problem Huazhong University of Science and Technology has adapted MCI curriculum in collaboration with International Curriculum to keep its standards high. This is of greatest advantage to Indian students.
