Medicine (Hons) University of Nottingham

Overview

At Medicine (Hons) degree from the University of Nottingham you’ll develop an understanding of the scientific and professional basics of medicine. You'll be taught subjects based on clinically relevant topics and patient examples. Areas of study will include, but are not limited to: respiratory, cardiovascular, cancer, musculoskeletal systems, gastrointestinal medicine, renal, endocrine, reproduction, and Central Nervous System.

From year one, topics studied in lectures, seminars, clinical skills, and anatomy suites are supplemented by patient interactions in hospitals or primary care settings. This part culminates in a research project and will see you graduate with a BMedSci degree after year three.   

You'll be taught by experienced clinicians and tutors, research a topic from a broad selection of specialisms and benefit from being part of our Medical School, based at one of the UK’s busiest hospitals – the Queen's Medical Centre. Located just across the road from University Park Campus, meaning you’ll not only be part of our Medical School but also university life.

Careers 

When you graduate with your BMBS degree,  you should  usually be able to provisionally register with the General Medical Council (GMC) for a license to practice medicine in the UK. We'll help you through this process and provide support as you transition to the UK Foundation Programme.     

To fully register with the GMC and be able to practice medicine unsupervised in the NHS or as part of a private practice, you will need to complete a Medical Licensing Assessment and complete the UK Foundation Programme.
