Liverpool Medical SchoolRated as one of the top medical schools in the country, one of the key features of the medical programme is Problem-Based Learning (PBL). This is an educational process that encourages students, working in small groups, to learn through curiosity and to seek out information for themselves. Students have the opportunity to link basic medical science with clinical practice early in the programme, thereby stimulating and maintaining their interest instead of overwhelming it with facts. Other features of the programme include introduction to clinical and communication skills training, a greater emphasis on learning medicine in the community and early patient contact. The Medical School offers a five-year undergraduate course, and a four-graduate entry course. Much of the clinical education takes part at the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospital NHS Trust. The medical school also has one of the oldest student societies - Liverpool Medical Students' Society. LMSS in fact pre-dates the university in its conception from when simply a teaching hospital existed around which the university was built. It continues today to be the hub of medical student life and creates the vibrant community which many students here love. Undergraduate Courses
