Hello
yes, even if you haven’t passed the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE), you can still pursue an MBA in Hospital Management. FMGE is only required if you wish to register and practice medicine in India after earning a medical degree from abroad. An MBA in Hospital Management is a management program, not a clinical one, so it does not require a medical license. Many students from different backgrounds — including non-medical graduates — opt for this program to work in healthcare administration, hospital operations, medical tourism, health insurance, and related sectors. However, do keep in mind that without FMGE, you won’t be eligible to practice as a doctor in India, so your role after the MBA would be non-clinical. Top institutes offering MBA in Hospital Management include :
- Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS),
- AIIMS (Executive programs),
- Symbiosis Institute of Health Sciences,
- Apollo Institute of Hospital Administration.
