Intercalated degrees
Are you an aspiring emergency, acute, critical care or pre-hospital physician? If so, our Intercalated degrees could be the option for you
CPD for healthcare professionals

We are aware that the UKFPO has released a statement to inform medical schools that they will be removing certain educational achievements – including intercalated degree awards – from the UKFPO application score for 2023 entry.
The value of our intercalated programmes in Urgent and Emergency Care and Critical Care extends far beyond creating a 'points-based advantage' for foundation year one applicants. As one of our clinical intercalated students, you will experience one academic year embedded in clinical practice, actively contributing to patient care with the support of a consultant mentor.
In addition to this, you will receive specialist instruction and inter-professional learning in topics such as quality improvement, leadership and non-technical skills. We firmly believe that graduates from our programmes are well-prepared to care for patients and function as effective doctors during their foundation years and beyond.
Please find more details in this letter to our potential students.
Delivered by experts, our programmes are tailored to you and your career.
During your intercalation, you will engage in quality improvement and develop your confidence and competence as a leader and member of the healthcare team.
The unique mentoring, usually provided by a consultant in emergency medicine and intensive care, will support your progression developing relationships and the wider networks, that is so valuable as you complete your medical degree and commence your early years as a doctor.
We are considering applications from third and fourth-year students. All students will be assessed using identical applicant shortlisting and interview performance criteria and applicants will be assessed on individual merit and potential, not their specific position in training.
Enjoy a truly unique intercalated degree experience.
In 2021, we expect to offer a range of student placements across the UK, including some of the biggest and most dynamic NHS Trusts.
Spend a year experiencing critical care medicine and life in the intensive care unit.
