Course summary

The Graduate Entry Medicine Programme enables honours-degree biomedical/life science graduates and healthcare professionals with equivalent academic qualifications to study for a fast-track degree in medicine. The programme design enables you to bypass the first stage/year of a conventional medical degree to achieve qualification in four rather than five or six years.

Key benefits

  • Integrated medical science with clinical teaching; and focus on learning in close contact with patients.

  • Partner hospitals include Guy’s, King’s College and St Thomas’ Hospitals – three of the most renowned and busiest teaching hospitals in London.

  • Students benefit from clinical placements at district general hospitals located across the South of England and at over 350 general practices.

  • Learn from some of the world’s most influential clinicians and scientists, who are global leaders in life sciences and medical research.

  • A multi-faculty university giving you access to a breadth of non-core subjects including humanities and social sciences.

  • Twinned with leading medical schools around the world, providing opportunities for clinical exchanges during your elective module.

  • Accredited by the General Medical Council (GMC), this Primary Medical Qualification entitles the holder to apply to the GMC for registration to practise medicine in the UK.
