The integrated teaching has been associated with multiple advantages for both the teachers and students. However, it is important to explore the educational initiative in terms of the opportunity which it presents to the students, as eventually our aim is to produce a competent medical graduate. However, for the successful implementation of the integrated teaching and accomplishment of the intended learning outcomes, we have to give due consideration for the existing challenges. There are no doubts that challenges exist from the perspective of administrators and from the faculty perspective, but we cannot ignore the potential challenges attributed to the students. In conclusion, integrated teaching has been linked with multiple benefits for the students in the medical education. However, we have to understand the opportunity and the challenges attributed to the same from the students' perspective for better and successful implementation. }, URL ={https://www.ijhas.in/article.asp?issn=2278-344X;year=2019;volume=8;issue=3;spage=213;epage=214;aulast=Shrivastava;t=6}, eprint ={https://www.ijhas.in/article.asp?issn=2278-344X;year=2019;volume=8;issue=3;spage=213;epage=214;aulast=Shrivastava;t=6} }
