Queen Mary University of London is proud to offer a five-year Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) programme taught on the Mediterranean islands of Malta. The MBBS is taught by Queen Mary's Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, a member of the Russell Group of leading research-led UK universities.
The programme has been designed to provide students with the medical knowledge, clinical skills and professional attitudes required to become a competent Foundation Year (FY1) Doctor. Our spiral curriculum is taught in a series of modules based on body systems which, in turn, encompass various scientific and medical themes. The curriculum is integrated, and problem- and systems-based, and promotes early patient contact and clinical skills. The programme is very similar to the MBBS London programme in terms of its content, method of delivery and selection criteria.
One of the leading medical schools in the UK, Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry brings together two venerable teaching institutions: St Bartholomew’s Hospital, which dates back to 1123, and The London Hospital Medical College, which was the first purpose-built medical school in England and Wales, founded in 1785.
This wealth of tradition is combined with some of the most modern medical facilities in the UK, including the largest new hospital in Europe, the first new dental hospital building in the UK for 40 years, and the Blizard Building, containing some of the largest open-plan biomedical research laboratories in Europe.
As you would expect from a medical college that has 230 years’ experience of training the next generation of doctors and surgeons, our students are very satisfied with their learning experience – in the most recent National Student Survey (NSS 2017), 93 per cent were satisfied with the quality of their course. We will be bringing the same standards of innovative research-led teaching and investment in excellent facilities to our MBBS in Malta.
