Overview

Medicine (Hons) (Canada Route) from University of St Andrews is designed for applicants who wish to return to Canada for postgraduate training.

Quick Facts:

This programme allows students wishing to practise medicine in Canada the opportunity to qualify earlier than if they had studied in Canada or the USA.
