Background And Progress
UCL Medical School is devising and implementing a New Curriculum which builds on strengths of the current MBBS programme and new opportunities within the School of Life and Medical Sciences and UCLP.
Rollout
Rollout
of the new curriculum has already started. It began when the new-look Final
Year was implemented for the 2010/11 Year 5 students which included introducing
the regular Case-of-the-Month component.
Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs about the New MBBS 2012 Programme including from students, staff and DGHs.
Staff development and training package
A full communications and staff development programme is being worked out to ensure everyone is as prepared as possible for the changes.
Core Conditions
The MBBS-2012 core curriculum will centre upon the patient and the symptoms, signs or test abnormalities with which they might present.
New Curriculum Roadshow
We want everybody to know all about the new curriculum
so we are organising a ‘New Curriculum Roadshow’ which is visiting all the
places where UCL students, and those who teach and train them, are
located.
