Approved by Para Medical Board Karnataka (PMBK)

Para Medical Board Karnataka (PMBK): Para Medical Courses in interdisciplinary medical subjects are becoming enormously important in Health Care Systems. In recent years, there has been a growing need for qualified and well-trained Para Medical personnel who form an integral component of the medical profession. In order to meet the increasing demand for qualified and trained Para Medical personnel, it is necessary to impart the training to eligible and interested students.

The Man Power Committee constituted by the Govt. of Karnataka has emphasized that there is an acute shortage of Para Medical personnel in our State. Taking this into consideration the State Govt. has constituted this Board in the year 1997 to control and to conduct the Para Medical Courses.

The Para Medical Board formed by the Government of Karnataka is having overall control over the Govt. and Pvt. Paramedical Institutions running Para Medical Courses in the State. The main functions of the Board are a grant of affiliation, regulate admissions and control the functioning of Institutions running Para Medical courses with respect to importing quality education programs and conduction examinations.
