Here's what University of Chester says about its Graduate Entry Medicine course.
Gain the medical, clinical and research skills to pursue a career in any field of medicine with our Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) qualification.
The University of Chester's medical degree is a four-year, graduate entry MBChB programme, open to applicants with a previous degree in any discipline. Unlike many traditional MBChB degrees, this allows more mature students to consider becoming a doctor after having completed a previous course of study towards a graduate degree. For example, even if you have a first degree in the arts, humanities or languages but would now like to study medicine, you are eligible to apply. We welcome people from a wide variety of backgrounds who wish to pursue a degree in graduate entry medicine in the UK, not just those with a background in science or allied health care disciplines.
Our first cohort was welcomed in September 2024.
As a new medical school, we are required to undergo quality assurance by the General Medical Council (UK) to ensure that our medical education is of a high standard and that we meet the requirements for all UK medical schools set out in the document, "Promoting excellence: standards for medical education and training". The GMC's quality assurance process has several stages, culminating in approval for a new medical school to award a Primary Medical Qualification (PMQ). This enables graduates (subject to individual status) to obtain GMC registration and practise medicine in the UK. Chester Medical School is currently progressing through the stages of the GMC approval process.
To avoid any risk to students enrolled on a new medical programme, each new medical school is mandated to have a contingency school. The contingency school ensures that students continue and complete their course of study. The University of Chester's contingency school is Warwick Medical School. Warwick Medical School provides regular support to us and a guarantee that students can transfer to Warwick should the need arise.
