In addition to the various courses pertaining to the health sciences, the University has unique distinction of running skilled courses in as many as 60 streams which shall develop human resources which is a great need of the society. These skilled Courses are in line with the thoughts of Hon’ble Prime Minister. The University is committed for transparency accessibility problem solving approach for the students and maintaining standards as per statutory bodies like MCI, DCI & INC. It is open for the genuine criticism for the development of University. The University and its affiliated colleges are putting every best effort to increase its infrastructure, so that ambience of better learning is created.
Improving upon the existing infrastructure and the facilities at its constituent college GGSMC, Faridkot, we had been able to admit four candidates each in DNB in the post graduate courses in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Radiodiagnosis from session 2018-2019. This year we have been able to get 2 seats in the MD Course in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. This is a biggest achievement by the Baba Farid University by bringing this college to such fame especially when few years back this Medical College was existing in a small building and with not many facilities.
To add to it, it is worth mentioning here that the GGSMC, Faridkot is running super specialty services in the cardiology, Urology, Neurosurgery, Neurology, Pediatric Surgery, Neonatology, Gastro surgery as well as Plastic Surgery . In all these department, the service are provided by the specialist doctors in their respective fields on regular basis.
In the end, I welcome all the new entrants to the University.
