Medicine & Surgery, MBBS

Start your journey to becoming a doctor in the UK with our outstanding teaching in state-of-the-art facilities. We have created a welcoming, multicultural environment. Our MBBS programme places considerable emphasis on developing your expertise in a whole range of practical areas, including clinical, communication, observation, teamwork and leadership skills.

You’ll spend Years 1 and 2 largely on campus in Preston. In Years 3, 4 and 5 you will study at either the Burnley or Westlakes campus. You'll also undertake clinical placements in a wide variety of locations preparing you for a career as a qualified doctor. As part of the course assessments you will undertake both components of the Medical Licensing Assessment, so will graduate with this completed.

This course is open to international (non-UK) students and UK students. In line with our aim to create a representative workforce, we will apply a weighting to applicants who meet our widening participation criteria.

To help you with your medicine application we have created an applicant guide. If you don't meet the entry requirements for the MBBS, you may wish to consider a foundation year:

• Foundation year for international students
