Want to start your journey to become a doctor, but don't meet the traditional entry requirements? Depending on your circumstances, the Medicine with a Foundation Year course could be your route to achieving your ambitions. The welcoming foundation year offers you small class sizes and a chance to form close relationships with your fellow students. This support network will, upon successful completion, transfer into the early years of the medicine course. You'll be taught by experienced teachers in a medical school with 50 years' experience training doctors and an excellent reputation for teaching and research. At Nottingham you'll get the clinical skills you need for a successful career in medicine and still have time to enjoy your university experience. **Two degrees in one** You'll undertake a supervised research project in your fourth year, leading to the award of an integrated Bachelor of Medical Sciences (BMedSci) without needing to study for an extra year. You'll then continue into your final years putting your learning into practice on placements at hospitals and GP surgeries to earn your BMBS. **Full-body dissection** We're one of the few medical schools in the UK who help you learn anatomy using full-body dissection. **Case-based learning** You'll learn using case-based learning, making use of real patient scenarios and focusing on key clinical points **Great community** Medical students at Nottingham join an active student community. The student-led medicine society puts on regular events throughout the year and provides support in the form of peer mentoring and more. **Broad range of expertise** You'll be able to explore a broad range of research areas as part of your studies alongside national and international leaders in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cancer research, mental health technology and more.

Year one In your first year, you'll study all the important elements of biology and chemistry required as a foundation for your future studies. In addition, you will cover key topics in professionalism and communication and study subjects including anatomy, microanatomy and microbiology. Your learning is set in a clinical context where appropriate. This year is predominantly studied at the Royal Derby Hospital. Year two In your second year, you'll move to the Medical School at Nottingham and develop an understanding of the scientific and professional basics of medicine. You will then study themes based on overarching clinical problems such as respiratory and cardiovascular medicine, the musculoskeletal system, and cancer. There is also the opportunity to reinforce your learning through hospital and general practice visits. In the spring semester, students usually have the chance to study an optional module, looking into specific topics in a bit more depth. Year three Your third year continues your theme-based teaching, looking into a variety of other clinical problems. In each semester you will usually be able to take an optional module to suit your personal interests. Year four Your fourth year begins with a supervised research project in an area of your choice and an accompanying Research Methods module to help with the project. You're also able to take two optional advanced medical science modules. This will lead to being awarded the BMedSci. Following your project, you'll move into the final years and begin the Clinical Phase. Final years Your final two years form the majority of the Clinical Phase. This is a rotation of a series of six-week placements in major teaching hospitals and primary care. The experience you gain in these years will provide you with the professional knowledge, skills, values and behaviours to succeed. In both years you'll have the option of student-selected modules, which can be carried out at home or abroad. These end with a six-week placement of your choice and a medical assistantship to prepare you for your foundation year training.
