摘要

India’s expansive medical education system serves a vast and diverse population but continues to be hampered by an over-reliance on outdated pedagogy and limited research emphasis. Although the National Medical Commission has attempted to standardize training with reforms like competency-based curricula, challenges remain. We highlight strengths such as extensive clinical exposure, alongside shortcomings like fragmented concept-based learning and regulatory inefficiencies. We advocate for a paradigm shift from passive knowledge absorption to active generation. By integrating concept-based learning, problem-based learning, Objective Structured Clinical Examinations, and early research exposure, the proposed reforms aim to cultivate critical thinking and innovation, aligning India’s medical training with global standards.
