Introduction
"Due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, examinations may be replaced by an alternative form of assessment during the academic year 2021/2022. Please refer to the Programme Specification on these pages for further details."
The Clinical MD programme is specially designed for overseas, early-career medical practitioners who wish to undertake a substantial course of individual research and develop clinical skills related to general internal medicine. It will provide you with the recognition required to become a specialist in general internal medicine in your home country.
You'll undertake an individual research project on novel medical or healthcare delivery combined with related studies in general internal medicine supported by clinical placements at local NHS hospital sites.
The duration of the programme is of 27 months, with a flexible starting date with two intakes per year.
All applicants have the option to be considered by the General Medical Council (GMC) for full registration with sponsorship. To be eligible for this option, applicants will undertake a two-week foundation training programme at an NHS hospital that provides clinical placement for the programme. Additional entry requirements and fees apply.
