The Medicine with a Foundation Year BMBS is a one-year foundation course designed to widen access to medicine study. On successful completion students will automatically progress to the BMBS Medicine course.

The University of Lincoln has embarked on an exciting collaboration with the University of Nottingham to offer medical education in Lincolnshire. Students can now apply to study the University of Nottingham's Medicine BMBS degree or Medicine BMBS with Foundation Year based in Lincoln, taught by academic staff from both universities. Students will be registered with the University of Nottingham and upon successful completion will receive a University of Nottingham degree award.

Nottingham medicine courses are some of the most popular in the country, offering innovative teaching and early interaction with patients. We aim to ensure that our doctors learn from experience and the course offers a varied placement experience, providing the opportunity to gain hands-on clinical experience through excellent links with local Lincolnshire NHS trusts.

All applications for this course must be made through UCAS. Students will need to apply to the University of Nottingham and choose the Medicine with a Foundation Year BMBS (Lincoln pathway) as an option.

About this course

At the end of this six year course successful students will receive their BMBS degree, which is a primary medical qualification (PMQ). Holding a PMQ entitles students to provisional registration with the General Medical Council, subject only to its acceptance that there are no Fitness to Practise concerns that need consideration.

Graduates are required to undergo a further two years of foundation doctor training. Full registration is granted by the GMC at the end of the first year of this training.
