School of Medicine

Curriculum - Dynamic, Responsive, Enlightened

  • The medical curriculum at UCC reflects current best practice in medical education and is constantly re-assessed, re-appraised and improved.

  • An integrated systems-based curriculum -medical sciences are taught alongside clinical science and clinical skills, professional development and health and disease in society so that students acquire new knowledge in a patient-centred and holistic way. This is augmented by a wide range of special student-selected modules ranging from research projects to Humanities work-shops (Art and Medicine, Creative Writing and Medicine).

  • The Graduate Entry Medicine Programme recognizes the unique abilities and commitment of graduate entry students and has tailored the delivery of the curriculum accordingly.
