Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)

The MBBS degree will initially be available to international students only, with plans to open to home students soon after.
This 5-year programme focuses on developing the knowledge, skills and behaviours that the General Medical Council (GMC) requires of new medical graduates, with significant emphasis on the professional values and behaviour required of doctors working in the UK as defined in the GMC’s Good Medical Practice guidance (2024). The aim of the programme is to produce competent, compassionate and well-rounded medical professionals ready to serve diverse populations and meet the challenges of modern healthcare. In accordance with the GMC assessment guidelines, assessment in the MBBS programme is across three assessment domains, Professional Knowledge (PK), Professional Skills (PS) and Becoming a Doctor (BD).
