The MBChB in Medicine and Surgery at Lancaster University will provide you with the knowledge and professional skillset required to become a well-rounded doctor able to deliver high-quality, patient-centred healthcare. We are passionate about inspiring future doctors to address health inequalities and have a positive impact on people’s lives. This reflects our research focus which centres on understanding the health needs of different populations at local, national and global levels. <br/><br/>At Lancaster, our student-focused programme combines problem-based learning with clinical teaching from the outset, offering a holistic approach to medicine, and providing exceptional all-round training. Small group teaching delivered by Clinicians and Academics enables our medical students to thrive in a dynamic, innovative and supportive environment. <br/><br/>As a modern, forward-looking medical school, we enhance our teaching with new technologies, including Anatomage tables for virtual dissection and simulation-based teaching, using whole-patient manikins, in our Clinical Skills labs. Clinical Placements in primary and secondary care, based in urban, coastal and countryside communities across the North-West of England, provide our students with a breadth of experience, to create resilient, work-ready medical practitioners, who are confident in themselves and their abilities. <br/>For more information about the MBChB course and entry requirements and to download our current course guide, please visit: www.lancaster.ac.uk/lms/medicine/mbchb-medicine-and-surgery.
