List of medical schools in the United Kingdom
- List of medical schools in the United Kingdom
This list of medical schools in the United Kingdom includes all thirty-two medical schools in the United Kingdom which are recognised by the General Medical Council and lead to a medical degree of a British university. There are twenty-four such schools in England, five in Scotland, two in Wales and one in Northern Ireland. All but Warwick Medical School and Swansea Medical School offer undergraduate courses in medicine. The Bute Medical School (University of St Andrews) and Durham Medical School offer undergraduate pre-clinical courses only, with students proceeding to another medical school for the clinical course. The list is ordered by country and name.
The oldest medical school in the United Kingdom is the University of Aberdeen School of Medicine, which was established in 1495, although the University of Oxford has been associated with medical teaching since the 13th century, the University of St Andrews began teaching medicine in the late 15th century, and the University of Cambridge began teaching medicine in 1540. In the 19th century, Belfast, Sheffield, Birmingham, Leeds, Newcastle, Liverpool, London, Manchester and Cambridge were established between 1814 and 1842.
The next expansion of medical schools began following the recommendations of the "Royal Commission on Medical Education (1965-1968)" (the "Todd Report"), which called for the immediate establishment of new schools in Southampton, Leicester and Nottingham to aid medical education in the United Kingdom; [cite web | url=http://www.nhshistory.net/chapter_2.htm#Medical_education_and_staffing | title=Chapter 2, 1958-1967 | accessdate=2007-08-21 | publisher=NHSHistory.net] ["Commission on Education". "British Medical Journal" 2: 57-58.] all were built between 1970 and 1980. Medical schools at Warwick (located in the City of Coventry), Swansea, Keele (located in the City of Stoke-on-Trent) and Hull (in partnership with York) eventually opened in the 1990s and early 21st century, as well as new medical schools at Durham, Brighton and Sussex, and Plymouth and Exeter.
