RGUHS Bengaluru to introduce Basic Kannada Course: The Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Bangalore, has introduced a basic Kannada course for students who are coming from other states. The course aims to help candidates who do not have Kannada as their primary language of instruction for learning the basics of the language. The government of Karnataka pushes for wider use of the Kannada language, especially across the educational institutions of the state.
Already, the university has framed the Kannada syllabus for the respective course, and soon, detailed guidelines will be circulated to the affiliated colleges. As per the vice chancellor of RGUHS, Dr. Bhagavan B C, proficiency in Kannada will guide the pupils when they practice medicine in the state, so that they can easily communicate with their patients.
Apart from the introduction of the Kannada language, RGUHS has also planned to issue an order that the Kannada language should be mandated in official correspondence. Moreover, the publishing arm of RGUHS, Prasaranga, was asked to publish the medical books in Kannada as well. Along with it, the medical students will also be taught foreign languages. Since the medical professionals, that is, the allied healthcare workers and doctors, are in high demand across the world, RGUHS, in association with the Bengaluru City University’s Department of Global Languages, aims to teach foreign languages to the students. For instance, French, German, Japanese, and Italian are among the foreign languages that will be taught to the pupils, who are pursuing dental, nursing, medical, and allied health science courses at the University. The BCU and RGUHS are all set to sign a Memorandum of Understanding for imparting foreign language lessons to the students of the university.
