Medical Education
The UK is one of the leading countries in the world for medical education and training. Due to the UK government restrictions, medical schools cannot accept as many international students as they want. One way to allow international students to access the UK excellence in medical education is to teach the same degree outside the UK.
Queen Mary, University of London (QMUL), has one of the oldest medical schools in the UK Click Here. Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry has now established the MBBS programme in Malta.
QMUL has a strong core curriculum is underpinned by research, you will be linking your learning to the work of the faculty, from the laboratory bench to new drugs to public health interventions. With less emphasis on traditional lectures, problem-based learning in small groups encourages you to take an independent approach to clinical scenarios.
