Prestigious start to a career in medicine

NUMed’s foundation programme equips students with the intellectual development and subject knowledge for studying medicine or biomedical science while strengthening their English proficiency.

THE medical field has always been a popular profession for students and parents, largely due to the noble values of saving lives, as well as for its stability and rewards. As an academic institution that excels in teaching Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Newcastle University has consistently been one of the most highly regarded medical degrees in the UK with programmes that are confirmed by the UK’s General Medical Council.

It is also a national centre of excellence in biomedical research, ranked within the top 20 in the UK for Biomedical Sciences, according to The Times/Sunday Times Good University Guide 2019 (Subjects Allied to Medicine category) and top 125 in the Clinical, Pre-clinical and Health category by Times Higher Education World University Rankings by Subject 2018.
