Course description
The year 3 Medicine course provides an introduction to clinical medicine and therapeutics. The placement component takes place in (mainly) general medicine units located in each Clinical Unit as a framework for clinical learning in medicine, coupled with clinical discussion sessions for each week of the placement. The clinical discussion sessions will be coordinated by a consultant physician. In some cases, a sub-specialist with a clinical interest in the topic of the week will be involved. In this course you will continue to use your self-directed learning techniques and knowledge acquired during Years 1 and 2 of the MD to focus your learning within a hospital ward environment.
