MBBS Medicine with a Gateway Year

You'll join a small cohort of enthusiastic and motivated students working together to gain the academic knowledge and skills needed to progress onto our five-year medical degree. The Gateway Year team will work hard to support you and ensure that you feel like a medical student from day one. You'll develop your professional identity, and the skills needed to succeed as a medical student, through dedicated modules delivered within the Medical School. The Gateway Year offers opportunities for clinical shadowing and clinical experiences with local health care providers including the NHS. You'll be well supported through regular sessions with your academic advisor. The Medicine with a Gateway Year programme maps to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We encourage students to be curious and invest in the world around them and to be agents for positive change within the medical school and the medical profession. Upon successful completion of the Gateway Year, you'll progress to the five-year MBBS Medicine degree. This programme is structured into modules based on body systems. Norwich Medical School is committed to producing well-rounded medical graduates, and you'll study the foundational biological, social, and clinical sciences of medicine. You'll then apply this knowledge in practise through placements in hospitals and general practices.
