Our Graduate Entry Medicine (GEM) course educates, trains and prepares students for practice in the healthcare systems of today and the future. We are the largest medical school in the UK, with over 2,500 undergraduate medical students. This course is aimed at students who have completed or are due to graduate from a life science or allied-health professional degree and want to pursue a career in medicine. This accelerated programme will allow you to complete a medicine degree in 4 years, instead of the full 5-6 years it usually takes.We use a wide variety of teaching and learning methods to ensure you benefit from the best attributes of traditional and novel teaching methods.The key Manchester approach is active learning through the study of themed case discussions combined with learning in clinical placements. This is supported throughout the course by lectures and practical classes (including anatomy).
