Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
We are comprised of four schools, all working together under a 'One Health' vision, to provide interdisciplinary research and teaching in human and animal health.
Surrey’s new medical school
We are delighted to be launching our new four-year graduate entry Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (BMBS) degree and will be accepting applications for students starting in 2024.
One Health, One Medicine
