Medicine
Develop a pre-university research project in Medicine
Medicine encompasses far more than just being a doctor.
Our medical Oxbridge Online Research Programme covers Medicine from the laboratory right through to the patient’s bedside and considers drugs, disease and the human anatomy along the way.
With expert guidance from an Oxbridge university tutor, you will explore the work at the forefront of medical research, debate medical ethics and learn the emergency medicine processes utilised by clinical medics in all fields. Along the way you’ll develop the critical thinking and independent research skills crucial to success in this field.
What is the Oxbridge Online Research Programme?
The Oxbridge Online Research Programme (‘OORP’) is designed for students who want to enhance their personal research and study skills in preparation for university, whilst also developing deeper knowledge in their chosen field.
Led by your personal tutor, you will undertake a research project assessed at university-level and receive regular 1:1 supervisions from an expert academic from Oxford or Cambridge University.
This course is ideal for students wanting to gain invaluable experience for writing a dissertation or thesis at university, whilst also familiarising themselves with the demands of an Oxbridge degree. Alternatively, this is a fantastic opportunity to experience a subject you have never studied before!
Example tutor:
Iris H
I found the Oxbridge Research Programme classes very interactive. I was able to work one on one with my tutor, which meant that I could ask the questions which I found most important, and allowed me to go more in-depth into what I was most interested in.
My tutor had economics experience from university, which meant that I was able to experience what studying economics at university would be like. I found it was very personal to me because it allowed me to go into my own interests rather than taking a course that would cover a whole variety of economics.
