Overview

The Medicine degree at the University of Leicester aims to help you become skilled, professional and caring doctors prepared to make patient care your first priority.

The course is truly patient-focussed, and enables you to take forward the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that are required to practise medicine effectively and successfully in the modern healthcare environment.

You will be prepared for the challenges that we are experiencing today and the inevitable changes in practice that will continue to occur in the future.

Careers and employability

At the end of the undergraduate course you will receive your MBChB degree, which is a primary medical qualification (PMQ). Holding a PMQ entitles you to a provisional registration with the General Medical Council.

Provisionally registered doctors can only practise in approved Foundation Year 1 posts: the law does not allow provisionally registered doctors to undertake any other type of work
