Based in Derby at the Royal Derby Hospital, the first 18 months of your course will see you develop your understanding of the professional and scientific foundations of medicine. Through problem-based learning, you’ll study clinically relevant topics and patient cases at our modern purpose-built medical school.
You’ll work in small groups to examine a case relating to a specific condition and work together to research the topic, gather relevant evidence and reach initial diagnostic conclusions and management plans. This approach allows you to develop clinical reasoning skills, identify connections between subjects, gain mastery in clinical skills and develop both your teamworking and individual study skills. From year one, topics studied in lectures, seminars, clinical skills, and anatomy suites are supplemented by early observations and patient interactions in primary care or hospital settings.
You'll learn from world-leading researchers and clinicians and benefit from being part of our dedicated Derby medical school and student-led medical society: Derby MedSoc. You can take part in their activities at any stage of your course. They organise various events throughout the year, including a musical, and provide you with additional support, for example, peer mentoring. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
