MSc in Advanced General Medical Practice

This one-year MSc in Advanced General Medical Practice has been designed to support international medical doctors who wish to gain a Master of Science postgraduate qualification and work in the UK.

The UK needs you. There is a huge gap in the number of practising medical doctors in the UK. To fill this gap, we help qualified doctors to come to the UK and be able to practise medicine legally. International recruitment has been, and will remain, an essential pipeline for medical staffing in the NHS. The College of Medicine and Dentistry has designed a programme specifically with this in mind. This intensive, blended learning one year MSc in Advanced General Medical Practice programme is based at our Birmingham Campus in the United Kingdom.

It aims to develop your confidence and skills needed to pass the GMC licensing exams (currently PLAB, but UKMLA from 2024), as well as provide a clear pathway to gain employment in the UK and practise medicine legally. You will receive direct hands-on tuition from some of the world’s most experienced medical educators and our student’s services team will support you from application, through the visa process, exam preparation as well as help you to navigate and communicate effectively within the NHS organisation. We also understand the stresses of moving to a new country. We offer accommodation assistance through trusted partners and support for your wellbeing. 

CoMD ensures students get the most out of their time. They offer unparalleled access to an outstanding and expert international faculty, teach transferable skills and intercultural competencies so that students leave as well-rounded professionals with a competitive edge.
