In recent years, Uzbekistan has emerged as the top choice for medical studies for international students, especially Indian students. It has taken a lead over Russia and Ukraine, which used to be popular choices for Indian students. Let’s discuss the factors that popularize MBBS in Uzbekistan for Indian students. [1]
1. Affordable Tuition Fees and Living Costs
[change | change source]The tuition fees in Uzbek medical colleges and universities are significantly lower than the private medical colleges in India. The maximum tuition fee with a hostel is around ₹ 17,00,000 in Uzbekistan, and it is much more affordable than medical students pay in India, Russia, and Ukraine.
2. High-Quality Medical Education
[change | change source]Samarkand State Medical University is one of the top-ranking medical universities in the world, followed by Tashkent Medical Academy, which has a rich history dating back to the Russian period. Uzbek medical universities follow the international curriculum. All universities are equipped with high-end research labs and libraries. Also, they provide education in English medium to all.
3. Recognition and Career Opportunities
[change | change source]All major medical boards, including the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Medical Commission (NMC) of India, recognize Uzbek medical colleges. Even the US and UK approve the medical courses of Uzbekistan. Indian students can go to higher studies or pursue medical careers in India after MBBS in Uzbekistan. They are trained to pass screening tests such as the Foreign Medical Graduates Examination (FMGE) in India to start a career.
4. Simplified Admission Process and No Entrance Exams
[change | change source]Unlike medical colleges in India, Uzbek medical colleges offer straightforward admission. Students with 50% aggregate in the 10+2 stream and NEET passed are eligible for admission to all leading Uzbek medical universities. IELTS/TOFEL isn’t a condition, though the medium of teaching is English.
5. Cultural Compatibility and Safe Environment
[change | change source]The long-standing cultural and historical ties with Uzbekistan make this central Asian country a welcome destination for medical studies. Indians are allowed to follow their culture and tradition. The friendly locals treat Indians as their family. Also, Indian food is readily available in hotels and restaurants. The low crime rate and a hospitable environment make the country safe and secure for Indian students.
Uzbekistan is fast becoming the first choice for medical studies. Anyone who wants to make a striking career in the field of medicine should study MBBS in Uzbekistan. Russia, Ukraine, and even private medical colleges in India aren’t a preferred choice for medical studies.
