Intercalated degrees
With an intercalated degree, you can take an additional BSc, BA or master’s level qualification during one extra year of study alongside your medical, dental or veterinary degree. We welcome all intercalating UK and international medical, dental and veterinary students onto our intercalated degrees at the Bristol Medical School.
Benefits of intercalation
Pausing your studies to intercalate gives you the chance to:
- delve deeper into a subject or specialism that interests you;
- improve your career prospects in a competitive graduate market;
- enhance your skills in research, critical scientific thinking, evaluating evidence and academic writing;
- make new friends and experience life as a student away from your clinical programme.
