Career Counselling / Competitive Exams

The Career Counselling and Guidance Programmes at MNR Dental College address the diverse Socio-economic challenges and geographic back grounds of the heterogeneous population of Students coming to the college. All the students have equity of access and placement opportunities through availability of appropriate Institutional support information. Availability of such relevant information coupled with professional guidance can result in better career achievements outside class rooms and help in healthy progression of students. Generally, students have no idea of the difficulties they will face before they enter dentistry as a career. They assume that BDS will guarantee smooth career advancement, but when they finish internship, this dream breaks and they are confronted with the harsh reality of it all. If students have a career dilemma, they consult a career coach who helps them clarify their abilities, skills, interests, values, and personal stresses, and suggests possible career options that might suit their particular abilities, skills, interests, etc.

Is it the right Career for students?

Yes. The basic qualities required for this career are patience, ability to stand long hours, good health, Concentration accuracy and a methodical and scientific approach. Students must also have an eye for detail, cool temperament, manual dexterity and compassion for people. Students are encouraged to have strong interpersonal and communication.

Career Counselling Schemes educate the students about the job prospects in Dentistry. Excellent employment opportunities are available for the dentists in dental departments in hospitals, nursing homes, dental clinics and health departments.
