Junior Residential Faculty of Medicine Programme

Cursus beschrijving

The Faculty of Medicine at Dukes Cambridge gives you a focused introduction to medical study. Over two weeks you’ll cover anatomy, physiology and medical ethics while practising the skills that shape clinical care.

The course builds a solid grounding in how the body works and how disease is understood and treated. You’ll study pathology, pharmacology and diagnostics, learning how healthcare professionals approach the prevention and management of illness.

Practical work is central. You’ll take part in clinical simulations and workshops where you practise key skills: taking patient histories, carrying out basic examinations and providing first responses in emergencies. These sessions are designed to give you confidence in applying knowledge in realistic settings.

You’ll also work in teams, discussing cases and completing group projects that reflect the collaborative nature of medicine. This develops both subject knowledge and the ability to communicate and problem-solve alongside others.

Studying medicine at Dukes Cambridge gives you a strong foundation for future study and clinical training. Whether you aim to practise as a doctor, move into research or lead in healthcare, this programme provides the skills and insight needed to take the first step.
