As one of only five new Medical Schools in England, the University of Sunderland School of Medicine will welcome its first cohort of students in September 2019. This marks a very exciting time for our University, our NHS partners and the City/Region.
With a track record of excellence in health education spanning almost 100 years, the University is well placed to contribute to the expansion of medical training and help to address the chronic shortage in some medical specialties including general practice in the North East. We have a significant focus on widening access and will deploy our expertise to ensure we recruit students from the communities they will ultimately serve.
Our new programme will allow Medical students to learn within our state-of-the-art teaching and learning spaces, including outstanding laboratory facilities, the latest in high fidelity clinical simulation equipment and some of the best hospital and GP settings in England.
Within this exciting role, you will have two key areas of focus. Firstly, you will effectively contribute to the development and delivery of high quality undergraduate medical education, training and research in the broad area of medical sciences. Secondly, you will undertake psychometric analysis of the assessment programme on our MBChB degree programme and work as part of the assessment team to contribute to a variety of related assessment activities.
