The intercalated Clinical Science programs offer medical students a chance to dedicate a full year to exploring a specific medical field in greater detail. Please note this program is exclusively available to current medical students. The Clinical Sciences degree focuses on translational research - bridging the gap between laboratory discoveries and clinical applications. A key component involves a seven-month intensive research project, providing hands-on experience with contemporary medical research methods. The curriculum includes lectures on current medical debates, a substantial research placement in either a lab or clinical trials setting, and training in critically evaluating scientific literature.
Admission to the program requires applicants to show academic performance in their first three medical school years equivalent to an upper second-class honors degree or higher.

Qualification Requirements
Building on work already undertaken within the MBChB, you may take the programme between the third and fourth, or fourth and fifth years of the MBChB.
To be considered for the programme you will have to demonstrate that your performance in years 2 and 3 of the medical degree is equivalent to a 1 or 2.1 in a standard classified degree.
Transcripts are reviewed to confirm student academic achievement. Students are expected to have achieved 65% or above (or have extenuating circumstances which were accepted for the academic year in question) for all completed years with the exception of year 1. In exceptional circumstances students who have failed to achieve this will be considered if a clear and strong case for academic progression can be made. If your academic achievement in year 2 and above of your medical studies has fallen below 60% (or equivalent for external candidates) year mean in the absence of extenuating circumstances, please detail any evidence which supports your academic ability to engage with the chosen programme of study.
TOEFL 95 overall with no less than 22 in any band. IELTS 7.0 overall with no less than 6.5 in any band.
