QA Higher Education has launched a new international medical foundation diploma in the UK aimed at international high school students.
The program has been designed in partnership with Northumbria University to lay a foundation for students planning to enter the medical profession. According to QA, students will improve their knowledge of biology, chemistry, and mathematics via a combination of theoretical and laboratory learning.
There is also a focus on English language proficiency, including academic vocabulary, writing skills, and independent language learning.
QA has partnered with Caribbean medical institution St. George’s University to provide opportunities for students once the course is completed. Through the affiliation, pupils who complete the foundation course and meet admissions criteria may be eligible for places on SGU’s medical degree pathway.
