Think & Thrive Academy

1. Medicine

The medical field encompasses everything from diagnostic practice to other related activities undertaken across the healthcare, pharmaceutical, and biotech-based industries. It is arguably one of the most popular courses after 12th science. If you have studied Physics, Chemistry, Biology (PCB) at the10+2 level, you can think about the following courses:

  • Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)
  • Bachelor of Dental Surgery
  • Bachelor of Pharmacy
  • Bachelor of Medical Lab Technology
  • Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry (BVSc. AH)
  • Physiotherapy (BPT) or Occupational Therapy (BOT)
  • B. Tech/BE in Biotechnology
  • B.Sc. in Agriculture and Environment Science
  • B.Sc. Home Science/Forensic Science
  • Diploma courses in operation theatre technology, medical laboratory, x-ray technology, etc.

If you have a bio-math combination of subjects, various interdisciplinary options open besides basic sciences and its allied fields, including the following:

  • Biomedical engineering
  • Healthcare data mining
  • Cognitive neuroscience and artificial intelligence
  • Nanotechnology
  • Robotics
  • Internet of things and smart wearable technology

Those with PCBM students who are not interested in these medical occupations can also go for architecture, computer application, and pilot training, etc
