Discover the Medical School

Congratulations on your offer

As a member of Edge Hill’s Medical School, you’ll train in some of the country’s best facilities to become a part of the next generation of doctors who understand the needs of communities and who can drive forward patient-centred care. 

Explore your passions in our Medical School, develop your knowledge in Catalyst and find your tribe in our Students’ Union. It’s all here in one place. It’s your new home, your place to study and your place to play.

Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre

When studying medicine at Edge Hill, you will be based in the innovative £14m Faculty of Health and Social Care building. The space includes leading-edge clinical skills facilities, ten teaching rooms, an 860-seat lecture theatre and a number of social learning spaces.

The clinical skills and simulated learning facilities offer a variety of simulated environments from home, through primary and emergency care to secondary care and beyond. The space allows you to undertake practical scenarios in realistic settings.

Supporting you

When you become a student here, you’ll be allocated a Personal Tutor. They will be your main source of support in your academic department. They’ll be with you as you progress throughout your degree, supporting you in three areas: professional/career-related support, pastoral support and signposting you to information you need. But they aren’t just there when you need support. They are also there to celebrate your successes, help with planning your progress and much more.

Personal tutoring and you

Hear from our students

It’s the people around you that make your university experience one you’ll never forget.  As a member of Edge Hill’s close knit Medical School community, you’ll find friends for life and discover your passions.

I’ve found the smaller class sizes at Edge Hill very beneficial and I’m really enjoying my time here.

Edge Hill stood out for me because of the foundation year for medicine, which really helped me get started on my career journey.

I’m set on paediatrics at the moment but, in four years’ time, I might decide I want to be a diabetes specialist or something else. I want to keep my options open and take all the opportunities I can.

One of the best things about Edge Hill is its unique approach to clinical placements. We’re allocated specific hospitals for the duration of our training, rather than moving to a different site for each rotation. This continuity has had a hugely positive impact on my learning, allowing me to build strong relationships with clinicians, and feel part of a team.
