The Christian Medical College Vellore Association is a private inter-denominational Christian organisation. The objective of the Association is to establish, maintain and develop a Christian Medical College in India where women and men receive education in the art and science of Medicine, Nursing or allied professions, to equip them in the spirit of Christ, for service in the relief of suffering and the promotion of health.

The clinical posting will be organized by the respective departments. The posting will consist of outpatient clinics, ward rounds, bedside clinical teaching, academic sessions, lectures, and operation theatre. You will be allowed to work up patients by yourselves with permission of the treating physician and the patient. You will not be allowed to prescribe and perform procedures.

The elective programme is planned in a flexible way to ensure that you experience the range of clinical medicine that is practised in India. We would like you to choose your postings at the application phase in order to ensure a good learning experience.
