Course summary

Clinically focused and patient-centred, our five-year undergraduate degree will equip you with essential knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes to practice medicine competently and professionally.

Your hands-on learning starts with practical classes in our pathology labs, anatomy and dissection rooms, alongside GP and community visits. Over the course of your studies, you’ll participate in a comprehensive series of clinical placements in medicine, surgery, general practice, senior health, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry and diagnostics such as radiology, as well as other specialties.

On successful completion, you’ll be granted the primary medical qualification – Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) – and be eligible to register with the General Medical Council (GMC) and begin its Foundation Programme.

We share our campus with a major teaching hospital, St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which means you’ll study in a clinical setting with like-minded individuals.

Course highlights

  • Contact with patients and clinical placements begins in your first year and over subsequent years, spanning the full range of disciplines.

  • Specialist facilities include state-of-the-art laboratories, a pathology museum and an advanced patient simulation centre, which enables you to learn clinical skills and practice techniques in a safe environment.

  • On graduation, you will be eligible to apply for provisional registration with the GMC and license to practice in approved Foundation Year 1 posts.

  • Competitive opportunity to intercalate at City St George’s or at an alternative institution, spending an additional year of study on top of your degree to obtain an iBSc in a variety of related subjects.
