BDS

MPH and Maharashtra are the courses which focuses on healthcare, but have some major differences. Both the degrees share some common courses, but the majority of the curriculum for each is distinct.
Some of the major differences are given below in order to give a clarity to the candidates.
MPH - Master of Public Health is a two year interdisciplinary course which provides training for careers in public health. The public health course deals with discovering, describing and responding to patterns of disease within population. They are also concerned with financing, developing and operating health programs.
Maharashtra - Master of Healthcare Administration is a two year course which is intended to train executives to manage health related programs and organizations. It focuses less on diseases and concerned more with the healthcare services. This course develops leadership and business management skills that are required within market based healthcare system. It shares common ground with MBA but emphasis more on the business of healthcare.
There are wide range of job opportunities provided for both courses. However, the ultimate decision is up to the candidates interest or career goals. If you are passionate about providing the solution to the diseases which prevail in the public, then you can go for MPH course. If you have experience in healthcare administration or want to begin a new career in healthcare management then you can go up with Maharashtra course.

Hi,
Any professional course is not easy! BDS is no exception to it. It is better to join the course with a clear cut idea about what your career prospects are once you finish the course.
BDS offers multiple career options, and it is better to know them right now, and work towards it, rather than wait till the end, when you may suddenly feel you just don't want to work as a traditional dentist!
1) General Dentist
This is the most inevitable choice that most graduates make. Most often a graduate works as a dental associate for a period of 2-6 months under an experienced private practitioner.
This period of time the pay will be often nil or nominal. But BDS freshers must realise that if you get to do observer-ship with a good clinic, where you get to see and learn a lot, then that is a boon in itself.
After gaining 2 or more years of experience in private practice you can start a clinic of your own. But in case you want to start one right away, you can do that provided you have family member or spouse already in this field who could guide you through the trials and tribulations of a private practitioner.
2) Lecturer/Tutor
One of the other options is joining any accredited dental college as a lecturer or tutor. A BDS graduate can become a lecturer but the pay will be minimal.
To become a senior lecturer you have to be an MDS graduate. The pay for a senior lecturer depends hugely on the management of the college you are associated with. But this is a job with dignity and career growth too.
3) Specialist
To become a specialist, post BDS, you must undergo 3 years of postgraduate studies (MDS). Specialization in any branch can be done and future career prospects are good.
4) Short Service Commissioned Officer with the Defense
BDS graduates can also join the Indian Armed Forces (army, navy or air force) Dental Corps too as Short Service Commissioned Officers. A life of good salary and various privileges along with the pride of donning the military uniform awaits the ones keenly interested.
5) IAS/IPS/IFS Officer
Attending the UPSC exams is also a very good option. High salaries and a lot of respect along with career growth is associated with being involved in public service.
6) Hospital Management
Masters in hospital administration is very much in demand now and these degrees can help you get into the hospital management arena.
7) Researcher
Graduates can join a research institute or undergo a Masters programme in Public Health for better opportunities.
