Course summary
This four-year accelerated medicine programme is designed for graduates of any discipline who wish to train as a doctor and others whose prior professional experience qualifies them for entry.
Course overview
Our accelerated medicine and surgery programme enables you to complete the syllabus of years 1 and 2 of our five-year programme in one extended academic year (45 weeks).
Our programme uses a modern and innovative integrated case-led teaching approach, and you'll be taught in a vibrant learning environment.
This course will prepare you to work as a doctor anywhere in the world, in both the clinical and academic arena.
Professional accreditation
This programme is professionally accredited by the General Medical Council (GMC).
Study abroad
At the end of Year 3 you undertake an eight-week elective placement. This gives you the opportunity to study medicine, either at home or abroad and gain hands-on experience of a different healthcare system.
Your future
After completing your University programme, you're currently eligible to apply for provisional registration with the General Medical Council (GMC) with a licence to practise, subject to demonstrating to the GMC that your fitness to practise is not impaired. However, the GMC are currently reviewing legislation, and you should be aware this may be different in the future.
