Eligibility

BDS at SRK University runs at RKDF Dental College & Research Centre, one of the university’s longest-standing health sciences institutes alongside RKDF College of Pharmacy. The 5-year programme includes 4 years of academic and pre-clinical/clinical study followed by a mandatory 1-year rotating internship, in line with Dental Council of India requirements.

Students gain clinical exposure early, treating patients at the attached dental hospital under faculty supervision from the clinical years onward — a critical differentiator for BDS applicants, since hands-on patient case volume directly shapes clinical competence by graduation.

RKDF Dental College also runs 8 MDS specializations, from Orthodontics to Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, giving high-performing BDS graduates a direct path to postgraduate dental study at the same institution without relocating — a meaningful advantage in Madhya Pradesh, where dedicated dental postgraduate seats remain limited.
