MBBS stands for "Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery." It is a foundational medical degree awarded to students who complete their medical education in various countries, including the UK, India, Australia, and many others. The degree is derived from the Latin "Medicinae Baccalaureus, Baccalaureus Chirurgiae."
The MBBS curriculum typically includes both theoretical and practical training in various fields of medicine, surgery, and other health sciences. Upon completing the MBBS program and fulfilling any necessary licensing requirements, graduates are eligible to practice medicine and pursue further specialization in various areas of healthcare through residency and other postgraduate programs.
It's worth noting that while the MBBS degree is common in many countries, other regions might have different medical degree designations, such as MD (Doctor of Medicine) in the United States.
