Dear Aspirant,
There used to be some cases earlier but as of 2019 the ragging is about to extinct from the college. You'll find some minor interactions from seniors and that is all. Moreover, CNMC has so many cultural events occurring throughout the year and you will definitely love it there.
Hope this helps. Thank you.
About College:
The Calcutta National Medical College and Hospital (CNMC) was established in 1948, but its roots go deeper. This is because the CNMC was an amalgamation of two existing institutes which were- National Medical Institute and the Calcutta Medical Institute. The former was in fact, established back in 1921. The CNMC was brought under the national gambit in the year 1967. Till 2003, it was affiliated to the University of Calcutta. But now, it falls under the aegis of the West Bengal University of Health Sciences, also based in Kolkata, the state capital of West Bengal. The campus of the CNMC spans three acres of land. The courses here are approved by the MCI (Medical Council of India).
The academics here is divided into several units. At the UG level, of course, the main course is the MBBS, which is the essential qualification to all aspiring doctors. There are a far greater number of options at the PG level. These may be divided in to the clinical, para and non- clinical courses. On completion of the clinical courses, students may be awarded either an MD, M. Ch or an MS. The programmes that may be pursued here are for- General Medicine, Anaesthesiology, Radio- diagnosis, Paediatrics, Psychiatry, Orthopaedics, General Surgery, Ophthalmology, Cardiology, Urology, Neurology, Neuro Surgery, Neonatology, Medical Gastroenterology, Cardio Vascular & Thoracic Surgery and for Obstetrics & Gynaecology.
The non- clinical departments here are for- Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry. The para- clinical departments are for the areas of- Pathology, Microbiology, Pharmacology, Forensic & State Medicine and in Community Medicine. A Post Graduate Diploma is also available for the field of Anaesthesiology. This is for skill enhancement of working professionals. The admissions to these programmes is via the NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) at both the UG as well as PG programmes. Another option is via the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE). One of the biggest advantages for aspiring medical and healthcare professionals to enrol at the CNMC is that a hospital is attached right next to the medical college. This allows the students to get hands- on experience observing, practitioners among doctors, nurses, surgeons and administrators.
