A PROLIFIC BRIDGE FOR ASPIRERS
India has a huge potential when it comes to education on scientific aspects. It homes some of the best colleges and professors that one can ask for. But still, many students prefer divergence and don’t wish to remain confined in the mainstream framework. And, ITCS is willing to stand for all such students, giving their dreams the wings to fly high. Established in 2014 by Kshatradhari Mandal (Director), the firm is associated with more than 100 globally renowned Universities in 20+ countries.

FEATURES THAT PROVES THEIR FINESSE
ITCS has very precise guidelines for choosing its colleges.

The quality parameters empower trust among candidates and keep ITCS in the trending section.

Moreover, ITCS has a series of training attributed to modern times, such as IELTS coaching, GRE, German Language, MCAT, SAT and GMAT.
ADDRESSING THE PAIN POINTS
“In India, 03 hrs NEET Exam (Qualifying Exam for Medical Aspirants), decides whether or not you’re going to become a doctor. It depends on your day’s performance – else you need to re-attempt”, explains Mr Mandal. Also, there is a fine difference in ‘Cost of Study’ between Govt. and private colleges, which brings foreign education to the picture. Another factor is acquiring a credible MBBS License in INDIA. Prior to 2018, India didn’t have any licensing exam for MBBS, and the opportunity went to Foreign Medical Graduates (FMGE) only.
But after the NMC ACT in 2019, it became mandatory for both Medical Graduates of India and FMGEs, to pass the National Exit Test (NEXT), to acquire their license. In such a scenario, it becomes indispensable to choose a University with an impressive pedigree, else clearing NEXT won’t be a success came too easy. Foreign Medical Universities surpass Indian Medical Institutes in several aspects, further raising the bar of foreign education. ITCS understands these facts and devises customized solutions accordingly.
At the same time, ITCS is well-aware of the perks of studying abroad, which helps them inspire candidates. It doesn’t matter whether you speak English or other languages, your grasp over the regional language will improve. A Bachelor’s degree from a foreign university opens the door to an ocean of opportunities. Students are also able to explore their interests in hobbies and sports.
Universities also offer exciting extra-curriculums and courses, depending on where you end up studying, that will help you expand your horizons in a new country. ITCS is a bridge to all such aspirations. we provide classroom-based academic research and training programs for undergraduates and a credential program for professionals, to develop productive leaders, practitioners, and people who can respond to intercultural job opportunities,” says Mr Mandal. ITCS also helps NRI students to engage in full-time supervised study and work-based training and learning experience.

KEEPING UP WITH THE PERKS
Even before the NMC Act, an MBBS degree from a foreign university was prioritized, so undoubtedly, it has its own prominence. But the true benefits revolve around global exposure, infrastructure, scholarships, reasonable fees, diverse network, flexibility and job opportunities. The degree is valid across eminent countries like the USA, Canada, UK AUS, New Zealand, and more for M.D Program and jobs as well. Students only need to clear the nation’s respective exams like USMLE/PLAB. International Colleges further incorporate all the state-of-the-art surgical devices, medical labs, and ample scientific and experimental services that can provide a favourable experience. They also leverage upon i4.0 advancements like robotics, AI, mechatronics, etc. to built world-class Simulation Centers.
On top of that, the budget is very feasible. Public Universities in Germany offers free of cost MBBS course and 100% scholarship. Students can study with a small fee to cover administration and other costs per semester. In China, students able to understand the regional language can study for free and earn a stipend as well. ITCS guides its students in a way that they can afford the tuition fees at a reasonable cost of living. “There is at least 60% of cost-saving as compared to India, private or deemed medical colleges”, affirms Mr Mandal. Also, it is very easy to get visa for education and requires no Interview.
CLEARING THE CLOUDS OVER FOREIGN EDUCATION
While earning an MBBS degree from a foreign university is a dream – for many, it is often perceived with ambiguity – a good or bad choice. ITCS with its every successful admission, not only shapes a career but also takes a step towards improving the awareness of foreign education. Studying abroad further helps in building a global network that can be a stepping stone for the future. It acclimatizes a range of opportunities while forming new communication methods to move forward. It offers a person to understand the world in a broader sense and make informed decisions.
ITCS will always act as a holistic guide ensuring the decision to move abroad turns out to be life’s best choice. “We work very closely with you throughout the admission process, helping you with the information and guiding you in the right direction. We care about the future of our students and aim to be their guardians, not advisers. We share the expectations of our students and their parents, strive to understand their reality, and match our incentives with their ambitions, so they understand we’re in this together”, Concludes Mr Mandal enthusiastically.
