Course Overview

Studying medicine gives you a clear trajectory towards becoming a doctor, but what if youd like the opportunity to study a specific topic in more detail or explore a more lab-based or theoretical area of medicine? This is where an intercalated degree could benefit you. With an intercalated degree, you can spend a year studying a topic of interest which has a number of benefits: youll be more informed about career options post-graduation, you'll gain new transferable skills, including research skills, and gain a deeper insight into a subject area that interests you. This lab-based degree focuses on enhancing your understanding of the control mechanism underlying energy metabolism as well as the function of the heart and circulation and how this can lead to disease. You'll learn about current treatments, recent clinical trials, and how large cohort genetic studies can be used to impact treatment. You'll also develop skills in study design, scientific methodology, and communication, and gain a critical awareness of current research questions in the field.
