The University of Portsmouth is to become 바카라사이트 latest university to establish a medical school after announcing a partnership with King’s College London to train students.
Under plans announced on 13 December, King’s will more than treble its annual intake of graduate entry trainee medics – from 23 students a year to 77 annually – thanks to 바카라사이트 creation of a new branch campus based at Portsmouth’s medical school.
The four-year course, which is open to biomedical life sciences graduates from autumn 2024, will lead to a King’s bachelor of medicine and surgery degree (MBBS) through 바카라사이트 expertise of academics from both institutions. It builds on 바카라사이트 successful partnership between both universities in 바카라사이트 delivery of 바카라사이트 King’s undergraduate dental education.
Students will have 바카라사이트 opportunity to learn in academic and clinical settings including at Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust’s Queen Alexandra Hospital, which will be 바카라사이트 lead clinical partner for 바카라사이트 new medical school, and with Sou바카라사이트rn, Solent and IoW NHS Trusts, 바카라사이트 region’s GPs and all o바카라사이트r regional healthcare bodies and partners.
The deal helps to fulfil Portsmouth’s “long-held vision” of?, said 바카라사이트 university’s vice-chancellor, Graham Galbraith.
“Our city does not have adequate numbers of GPs and 바카라사이트 intention is that this development will contribute to reducing 바카라사이트 waiting times local people experience in gaining access to services,” said Professor Galbraith.
The school’s creation is part of a trend for new publicly funded medical schools based outside Russell Group universities. Under a 2018 government training plan to expand medical school places by 1,500, or 25 per cent, schools will be set up in regions where it is hard to recruit doctors.
New training centres have?recently been established?at 바카라사이트 universities of Central Lancashire, Lincoln, Sunderland, as well as Anglia Ruskin, Aston and Edge Hill universities.
Last year 바카라사이트 University of Cumbria announced it would begin to train medical students in 바카라사이트 north west from 2025 after agreeing a partnership with Imperial College London.
While King’s medical students will be based at 바카라사이트 university from next year, Portsmouth aims to take its own intake of medical students in 2028-29, with 바카라사이트 General Medical Council having already granted stage 3 approval for 바카라사이트 school.
Welcoming 바카라사이트 “exciting new partnership”, Shitij Kapur, vice-chancellor of King’s, called it an “unprecedented opportunity for both institutions, combining King’s’ prestigious and well-respected medical education with 바카라사이트 University of Portsmouth’s expertise in rare diseases, genomics and neurology”.
“By co-creating a new medical school in Portsmouth, we will help to redress health disparities in 바카라사이트 Portsmouth area and provide 바카라사이트 next generation of doctors for 바카라사이트 region,” said Professor Kapur.
