Medicine at Lincoln

Doctors play a vital role in the lives of so many, from the most joyful, to the toughest moments. At Lincoln Medical School, we'll help you gain the clinical skills, knowledge and confidence required for a career in medicine.

Developed in partnership with the University of Nottingham and the University of Lincoln, the Lincoln Medical School (LMS) course allows you to graduate with a University of Nottingham BMBS.

The early years You’ll develop an understanding of the scientific and professional basics of medicine. You'll be taught subjects based on clinically relevant topics and patient examples. Areas of study will include, but are not limited to: respiratory, cardiovascular, cancer, musculoskeletal systems, gastrointestinal medicine, renal, endocrine, reproduction, and Central Nervous System. From year one, topics studied in lectures, seminars, clinical skills, and anatomy suites are supplemented by patient interactions in hospitals or primary care settings. This part culminates in a research project and will see you graduate with a BMedSci degree after year three.

You'll be taught by experienced clinicians and tutors, research a topic from a broad selection of specialisms and learn in our new, purpose-built facilities at the Lincoln Medical School. You'll be based in the second largest county in England, enabling you to experience varied patient care across multiple settings across Lincolnshire NHS trusts.

The later years The later years of the course are more clinically focused, where you’ll undertake a series of immersive placements at hospitals and GP surgeries. You’ll cover a range of specialties and experience medicine in different care settings, giving you a broad understanding and experience of how differently the NHS functions and cares for patients. At the end of the course, you will graduate with a BMBS, enabling you to work as a doctor on the UK Foundation Programme after you graduate.

Our in-depth but highly rewarding course provides you with an excellent start on your journey to becoming a doctor.
