<strong>Overview</strong><br/><br/>Coming to medical school marks the first step in a lifelong journey of discovery and fulfilment. You’ll be able to make a real difference to the lives of the patients you meet. You’ll also have the opportunity to broaden and deepen your understanding of the subject throughout the length of your career. <br/><br/>The MB BS Medicine degree at Norwich Medical School is different. We encourage you to learn the theory, and its real-world application, hand in hand from day one. We also put patients at the heart of learning, with placements that start from the first week of the course. This highly integrated approach is supported by a diverse range of tutors and the very best of teaching methods. <br/><br/>During your five years on the MB BS Medicine course, youll learn sciences needed to understand the human body and human behaviour. Youll encounter the legal and ethical principles at the heart of medicine, and develop the personal skills needed to manage a challenging career. Youll also learn how to consult with and examine patients, and the problem-solving skills needed to be an effective doctor. <br/><br/>All this takes place in a range of locations in beautiful East Anglia. Norwich Medical School is based on the UEA campus and at our main partner hospital, Norfolk and Norwich hospital. However, youll also spend time on placements in general practice and hospital in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. On our doorstep are state-of-the-art facilities where colleagues conduct health sciences research at a world class level. <br/><br/>Colleagues who supervise our students when they become doctors regularly tell us that Norwich Medical School graduates stand out. Our graduates have also told GMC that they feel they’re among the best prepared for the workplace in the UK. Although we have only been open a little over two decades, our doctors have found their feet across the length and breadth of the UK as consultants, GPs and academics. We’ll support you in the Foundation Programme application process, by which you apply for your first job as a doctor. <br/><br/><strong>Disclaimer</strong><br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
