About the course
The Clinical MD programme is especially designed for overseas, early career medical practitioners who wish to undertake a substantial course of individual research and develop clinical skills related to general internal medicine. It will provide you with the recognition required to become a specialist in general internal medicine in your home country.

Mandatory checks will need to be undertaken before the start of the clinical placements. These checks usually take a few weeks and are:

The duration of the programme is of 27 months, with a flexible starting date with two intakes per year.
All applicants have the option to be considered by the General Medical Council (GMC) for full registration with sponsorship. Additional entry requirements and fees apply.
The 27-month programme (Clinical MD only) is referred to as pathway 1; the GMC sponsored registered assessment training + Clinical MD programme as pathway 2. The choice of pathway does not affect the award given.
What’s next for my career?
