Noida: Government Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS) has started an internship programme for MBBS students from this academic year. The first group of 86 MBBS students — from the 2019 batch — were oriented on Tuesday. The programme, which is now compulsory for all students, is designed to last one year and aims to provide practical experience that is crucial for the students’ future careers.
“The introduction of mandatory internships is aimed at providing hands-on experience and practical exposure to the students, which is essential for their professional development,” said Brig Rakesh Gupta, director of GIMS.
Noting that the programme is designed to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world medical practice, Gupta added, “It will allow students to work closely with experienced medical professionals and engage in patient care, thereby honing their clinical skills.”
To facilitate the interns, GIMS has also announced the establishment of a dedicated library and reading room.
“This space will serve as a resource center, providing access to a wealth of medical literature and a quiet environment for study and research. Generally, students do not take internship options, thinking they won’t get time for NEET preparation. However, at GIMS, we have designed it in a way that students can take preparation for NEET PG too. The GIMS faculties and doctors will help in their internship and students will get a govt medical certificate post completion,” the director said.
The library cum reading room is anticipated to open during this academic year.
