Overview

The MBBS is taught by Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, a faculty of Queen Mary, a member of the Russell Group of leading research-led UK universities.

Graduates are awarded a Medicine MBBS from Queen Mary University of London (Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry ).

The Medicine programme from Queen Mary University of London has been designed to provide students with the medical knowledge, clinical skills and professional attitudes required to become a competent Foundation Year (FY1) Doctor. 

The spiral curriculum is taught in a series of modules based on body systems which, in turn, encompass various scientific and medical themes. 

The curriculum is integrated, and problem- and systems-based, and promotes early patient contact and clinical skills. The programme is very similar to the MBBS London programme in terms of its content, method of delivery and selection criteria.

Teaching and Learning

Your tutors will support and encourage you to develop an independent attitude to learning, such as making decisions about how to tackle key subjects and researching and discussing them with fellow students.

This approach will prepare you for life as a qualified doctor, when you will take responsibility for keeping your knowledge up to date through continuing professional development.
