According to the former i.e. Homoeopathy and according to strict canons of logic and philosophy, health and diseases are qualitative states of a concrete individual. Disease as described in text books of the "Practice of Medicine" are obstructions made by our mental concepts, the factual reality is the diseased person.But the teacher of Medicine should demonstrate to the students that the patient must be treated as a whole and not as a collection of systems and organs corresponding to the specialities of medicine. He has, in addition, to inculcate in his student the right attitude to medicine and to instill in him a sense of that intimate personal relationship between doctor and patient which is the essence of good medical practice.First PaperFevers-Common types of fevers, fevers caused by protozoal Infection Malaria, Black water fever, Leishmaniasis, Kala-Azar’.

About 225 hours shall be allotted to surgery. For a Homoeopathic student most of the so called surgical diseases are basically medical diseases and their treatment is done by internal medicine. In introductory lectures, the teacher has to define where an absolute need for knife is indicated. At this level it is more important to learn when a physician has to hand over the case to the surgeon. Actual details of operations, procedures etc. are not to be touched. Diagnosis of surgical conditions is of much greater importance than of learning about various kinds of malignant tumours and their differentiation. There is no need to teach the technique of operative surgery, but to teach the student to handle minor surgery confidently. Practical instruction in first aid and minor surgical methods must be given.First PaperGeneral Surgery: General surgical procedures.(i)Examination of surgical patient-asepsis and antisepsis, Sterilization Technique in operative surgery-preparation of patients for operation.

About 225 hours are allotted for Gynaecology. These subjects as far as possible should be integrated with Medicine and general lectures on Family Planning, Basic familiarity with the principles of Midwifery and Clinical training. These two clinical subjects should be continued concurrently with other subjects. Each student is expected to serve as a clinical clerk in the ward for 1 month each year. Each student will conduct at least 6 normal cases and attend. Practical training is essential as the doctor may be required to deliver babies in rural areas. He should be given special instructions in the practical care of the new born in the department of paediatrics. Few Homoeo drug therapy in Midwifery and Gynaecology cases, there will be close operation with the Department of applied Materia Medica and Therapeutics.First PaperSex Cycle, ovulation and Mensturation, Normal Pregnancy, Aminion Cherion, Decidua, Placenta, Umbilical cord.

Second PaperHomoeopathic RepertoryHomoeopathic Repertory theoretical lectures on the subject are hardly given, to say nothing of practical demonstration and working out of cases by the students. Its value in practical application of Homoeopathic Materia Medica in the difficult, acute and chronic cases is unquestioned. Moreover it makes the study of Materia Medica much more interesting and instructive. It forces the prescriber to go back Materia Medica and for undertaking the study of the remedy in depth. The students assigned to clinical clerkship in applied Materia Medica will be expected and carry their copy of Kent’s Repertory in the wards or outdoor and study the case on the spot with the help of the book.Total hours allotted for this study are 100.
