At St Mary’s, our School of Medicine in London has a bold mission: to train doctors who are not only clinically excellent, but deeply human-centred, ethically grounded, digitally fluent and socially purposeful.
Our MBBS programme integrates rigorous scientific and digital excellence with compassionate care, preparing doctors who can meet the healthcare needs of communities in an ever-evolving world.
The first intake is scheduled for September 2026, initially welcoming international students.
What makes us different
- Human-centred, not just patient-centred
From day one, students will experience care continuity – from home, primary care, hospital and back into the community – understanding the whole patient journey. - Science, digital & innovation
Our facilities and curriculum are designed to embrace modern medicine: simulation, AI/health tech learning, integrated skills suites, within our purpose-built Centenary Building for teaching, practice, and research. - Ethics, compassion & well-being
Our foundation is built on values – integrity, compassion, holistic care – not just technical ability. We embed student well-being proactively, recognising the challenges of medical training. - Diverse placements, flexible pathways
We work with a wide network of providers, not just one NHS trust, which gives flexibility: students will rotate across settings and providers, experiencing broad exposure and developing adaptability.
For partners, media & community
Opportunities to partner
