The Cambridge graduate course

The Cambridge graduate course in Medicine is a partnership between West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, the University of Cambridge, local general practices and four University of Cambridge colleges.

The course started in September 2001. Students are admitted to one of four colleges: Hughes Hall, Lucy Cavendish College, St Edmunds College or Wolfson College. Students regularly return to West Suffolk throughout the course to gain practical experience and clinical teaching. The course also involves general practices, so students can see patients being cared for from primary care onwards, appreciating the contribution of all partners to the health care of patients.
