Description:

The medical degree programme is an exciting pathway to becoming a doctor. In terms of learning methods, lectures will be used where necessary, but practicals, small group sessions, enquiry-based learning and patient-centred approaches form a substantial part of the programme. One of the strengths of the graduate and undergraduate degree programmes is patient-based teaching in small groups where our students learn the necessary skills under the tuition of highly qualified clinical tutors. We aim to enhance your student experience by attention to student welfare and by adopting innovative teaching strategies and assessment methods.

The UCD teaching hospitals are leading, modern national medical centres that deliver the highest quality in patient care. The general major teaching hospitals are the Mater Misericordiae University Hospital and St Vincent’s University Hospital, based in Dublin. UCD’s Health Sciences Centre, opened in September 2005, is a state-of-the-art facility for medical education and research and brings the research and teaching activities of physicians, nurses, physiotherapists and radiographers together under one roof.
