Velammal Medical College Madurai Placements 2025: Highest Package, Average Salary & Top Recruiters

Velammal Medical College Hospital and Research Institute (VMCHRI), Madurai does not provide campus placements for MBBS students in the way engineering colleges do. After completing the MBBS course, students must undergo a compulsory one-year internship at the attached Velammal Hospital, where they receive hands-on clinical training in various departments such as Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, and Obstetrics & Gynecology. This internship is an essential part of medical education and helps students gain practical experience before becoming registered doctors.

• Internship (CRRI): All MBBS students do 1-year compulsory internship in the college's own hospital (attached 2100+ bed multi-specialty hospital).

• Stipend during Internship: INR 7,000 to INR 10,000 per month (day scholars get lower amount; varies slightly by batch and source).

• After MBBS: No traditional campus placements like engineering colleges. Most students prepare for NEET-PG for MD/MS seats or join as medical officers in hospitals.

• Average Salary (for those who join jobs directly): Around INR 4-6 LPA (very few opt for direct jobs without PG).

• Placement Rate: Low (around 10% in some reports) because majority go for higher studies (PG) or government jobs.
