English shall be the language of instruction, and the curriculum covers NMC-recommended subjects, cadaver dissection, and concurrent clinical training at affiliated hospitals in both nations.
Students will also receive integrated training for Indian and international licensing exams such as FMGE/NEXT, USMLE, UKMLA, MRCP, and MRCS, guided by expert faculty from India and abroad.
Words of The Collaborators
Dr. Tarun Gogineni, Director of GSL Institutions and Hospitals, emphasized the significance of adhering to NMC norms:
“The NMC has explicitly instructed students to select only those foreign schools that meet FMGL requirements. Having Impuls recognized by the Ministry of Education of Uzbekistan and registered with WHO and ECFMG, the partnership guarantees a world-recognized and NMC-approved medical education route. Our internship program also provides an allowance of $100 monthly for 12 months.”
He added that whereas thousands of Indian students earlier opted for MBBS in Ukraine for studies, such partnerships now provide a safer and compliant option.
The same observation was shared by Dr. Bakhtımır Oybutaevich Kiradanov, President of Impuls Medical Institute, when he said:
“Our academic programs are aligned with India’s NMC guidelines and international standards like the USMLE. Jointly reviewed by Indian and Uzbek experts, our ECTS and CRME-based curriculum ensures that graduates remain eligible to practice not only in India but also in the USA, UK, and other global destinations.”
This Indo-Uzbek collaboration is set to transform foreign medical education for Indian students – integrating NMC compliance, international acceptability, and quality training under one roof.
