St. George’s University and Northumbria University have entered into an agreement providing an exciting pathway to becoming a medical doctor. Named the best new university in the UK by The Times newspaper, Northumbria University is well-known for its excellence in biomedical sciences and is recognized as a principal innovator in the field. The agreement links the scientific aspects of premedical training in the UK with a comprehensive and excellent medical education.

Students begin their studies at Northumbria University in a Certificate of Higher Education in Biomedical Science Course in the School of Applied Sciences, taking the same modules as Year 1 of the BSc Honours degree in Biomedical Science. After successful completion of the one-year certificate course, students proceed to Grenada to commence St. George’s University School of Medicine’s four year MD degree program. Qualified students accepted into this competitive program will complete the degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD) after a total of five years of study.

Students apply to Northumbria University for the Certificate of Higher Education in Biomedical Sciences Course through UCAS or direct to the International Office for International students. Upon receipt of the respective applications, St. George’s University and Northumbria University will liaise to establish suitable candidates and dates for interview. An offer for the joint program can only be made after an interview is conducted. Entry into St. George’s University School of Medicine is conditional on a minimum overall mark of 60% in the Northumbria University Biomedical Science Certificate and a satisfactory reference from Northumbria University
