Hii,

No, CUET UG does not offer a Bachelor of Operation Theatre Technician program. The primary purpose of CUET UG is to admit students to general undergraduate programs such as BA, BSc, BCom, etc.

You must apply directly to medical or nursing schools that offer the Operation Theatre Technician course, which is a unique medical/paramedical course. These universities use a different admissions procedure than CUET.

You may be able to pursue lateral entry into a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) program after completing your Orthopedic Technician course, depending on the eligibility criteria of the institution. Some universities offer lateral entry for candidates with a relevant diploma, while others might require you to apply directly for the full BPT program. Research institutions, verify eligibility, and ensure all necessary documents are prepared before applying.

Hello,

Lateral entry into a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) program after completing an Orthopaedic Technician course depends on the university and its eligibility criteria.

In general:

Most BPT programs do not offer direct lateral entry from paramedical diploma courses like Orthopaedic Technician.

You may need to start from the first year of BPT, as it is a full-fledged medical degree with a structured curriculum.

Some universities may offer credit exemptions or bridge courses, but this is rare.
