    of the best in Europe. The London-based public
    research university, the Imperial College London
    aims to benefit society through reaching
    breakthroughs and advancements in the fields of
    medicine, science, business and engineering. The
    typical medical course at Imperial lasts six
    years and includes an undergraduate degree which
    leads to an MBBS. Like many of the best medical
    institutes in Europe, they place an emphasis on
    clinical practice as well as intensive research
    techniques. When applying to Imperial College
    London for medicine, potential students must
    prepare for an interview as well. Those who
    reside in other countries and wish to pursue
    medicine at Imperial must note that competition
    is fierce when it comes to admissions of overseas
    students. The universitys alumni including
    Alexander Fleming, H. G. Wells, Thomas Henry
    Huxley, Frederick Gowland Hopkins, Sir William
    Henry Perkin and Alan Blumlein share this
    philosophy.

  • 6.The University of Warwick
  • In the latest rankings released this year,
    Warwick climbed three places and moved into the
    54th slot in the worldwide rankings. That is a
    testament to the work done at the university and
    the field of medicine is no different.
  • Located in the outskirts of Coventry, The
    University of Warwick recently became a member of
    the illustrious Russell Group of Universities.
    This is essentially the equivalent of the Ivy
    League in the United States and includes two
    dozen of the best research-intensive universities
    in the UK.

  • Falling among the best UK universities for
    medicine, Warwick also ranks high when it comes
    to employability rankings. This is another factor
    that students consider when seeking options
    because the quality of education is one
    determinant while employment is another matter
    altogether.
  • At The University of Warwick, students can pursue
    a four-year-long MB ChB or Bachelor of Medicine
    and Surgery. The course can be arduous but the
    challenge is extremely rewarding. By the time
    students are finished, they are trained to become
    diligent and determined doctors. They are able to
    execute the highest standard of clinical practice
    and patient care.

  • 7.The University of Bristol
  • Another member of the Russell Group, The
    University of Bristol and its Medical School
    offer wonderful opportunities for students. It is
    ranked in the top ten for universities in the UK
    and is 51st in the world.
  • Bristol offers an MB ChB Gateway to Medicine (6
    years) and MB ChB Medicine (5 years). The former
    is an intercalated degree which is highly
    rewarding and includes a year away from
    conventional medical, dental or veterinary
    studies, hence the additional year.

11
  • Anyone who wants to be accepted to the MBBS/BSc
    Medicine program at this prestigious institution
    needs to fulfil the entry requirements, which
    include an AAA in A Level. While these were the
    crème de la crème amongst universities offering
    medicine, there are many other universities that
    offer quality education and excellence in the
    subject.
