About the course

This highly regarded medical programme will prepare you for a career as a compassionate and skilled practitioner - able to provide safe, individualised care based on a sound knowledge of health, disease and society. Our MB BS 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.

　　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. Currently, all UK medical graduates are required to complete a two-year Foundation Programme of general clinical training. The majority of our students decide to apply to Foundation posts within the region. There are sufficient Foundation Programme places in the Northern Region for the majority of medical graduates. International students are currently permitted to undertake the full Foundation Programme, ie the first two years following graduation, but you are normally required to return to your home country to complete further speciality training.
