The Oxford Graduate-entry Medicine (A101) course is a four-year accelerated program designed for graduates from various academic backgrounds who wish to pursue a career in medicine. Established in 2001, the course provides a supportive and academically rigorous environment, integrating basic medical science with early clinical experience. The curriculum is structured to accelerate your learning, particularly in the first year, with intensive in-person teaching over two and a half terms. You will gain essential clinical experience from the first week, with placements in both GP practices and hospitals. The program emphasizes an academic approach, allowing dedicated time for a special interest project in the initial years, which can be continued into the later clinical stages. Students on this program fully integrate into the clinical course alongside those on the six-year program during their final two years, taking the same final examinations. This ensures a comprehensive medical education delivered within a world-renowned university setting.
Curriculum
The Graduate-entry Medicine course is structured over four years, with an accelerated pace in the initial years to cover foundational medical sciences and introduce clinical skills. The final two years fully integrate students into the broader clinical curriculum of the University.
