Our commitment to student-focused, patient-centred teaching, academic excellence, and a close-knit learning environment equips you with the skills, compassion, and confidence required for modern medical practice and your future clinical career.
Our MBChB degree offers practical anatomy, clinical, and communication skills development, hands-on experience through hospital and community placements and cutting-edge simulation facilities, and the opportunity to further develop the skills to pursue your specialisms through your assignments and selectives.
Lancaster Medical School offers two options for Medicine and Surgery degree programmes. You can apply for our standard five-year MBChB degree, or choose the six-year MBChB with a Gateway Year designed to support talented students who need extra preparation before progressing to Year 1.
Being a successful medical student and future doctor takes so much more than meeting entry requirements. You’ll be assessed through a four-stage process that includes academic performance, University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT), interview, and a fitness to practise assessment.
How to apply
Our curriculum is built around key themes including medical sciences, health, culture, and society, population health, and professional practice, ethics, and law. During your five or six years of study, you'll encounter different teaching and learning techniques and a variety of assessment methods.
