Plan Structure

In general the aims of the year, normally spent in supervised research, are to enable the student to acquire an appreciation of the value of observation and research in the development of medical science, to determine the 'current state of knowledge' in a defined field, to provide experience in the written and spoken presentation of scientific information and scholarly research, and to provide an invaluable background in basic research philosophy and techniques on which a subsequent career in specialised medical research may be built. This year enables the student to gain experience in the written and spoken presentation of scientific information.

Information concerning this program option is issued to medical students in mid-year. A list of available research projects may be obtained from the Office of the Dean.

The program for each candidate shall be designed to introduce the student to research in the appropriate discipline and shall consist of such formal and special work and any examinations prescribed by the BSc(Med)Hons Committee.
