The MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) or MD (Medical Doctor) is a primary professional degree that prepares students to become licensed physicians. In many countries (such as Georgia, parts of Europe, and the USA-style system), the degree is awarded as an MD, while others (like India, the UK, and many Commonwealth countries) use the MBBS title—both leading to a career as a medical doctor.
The program typically lasts 5–6 years and is divided into pre-clinical and clinical phases. The early years focus on foundational medical sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, pharmacology, and microbiology. In the later years, students undergo clinical rotations in areas like internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics & gynecology, psychiatry, and community medicine, gaining hands-on experience in hospitals.
