INTRODUCTION:

Government of West Bengal in the Year 1914. The Faculty was entrusted with
conduction of Licentiate Courses in Medical Sciences (L.M.F.). Subsequently the Faculty
started conducting examination of Diploma in Pharmacy.

As per provision of Clinical Establishment Act of West Bengal any Diagnostic Laboratory
possessing Valid Licence under the said Act can start the Training Course with the
permission of appropriate authority provided the diagnostic laboratory fulfills the
minimum requirements as stipulated by the State Medical Faculty of West Bengal.

Any Institution desirous of starting Para Medical Courses with the affiliation of State
Medical Faculty of West Bengal has to fulfill the stipulated requirements and to follow the
syllabus as prescribed by the Faculty. The State Medical Faculty also acts as an
Examining Authority for such courses.

Conduction of a Para Medical Course in Affiliated Institutions is being monitored by the

Faculty so that uniformity is maintained while conducting the same course in different
institutions.

Presently, the State Medical Faculty of West Bengal is considering grant of recognition to
Institutions for conducting the following courses:
