Abstract
Dermatology, being an inherently visual specialty, probably is more amenable to online learning as compared to other specialties.

This study puts to find the student’s perceptions and the impact of the program on the learning of students to be beneficial to the faculty in the future. The primary objective is to evaluate the perception of the students and teachers towards online teaching. These condary objective is to evaluate the performance of students.
