The ‘Explore Medicine’ programme, delivered by the Oxford Medicine Summer School, provides student with a broad introduction to the human body and mind. Students explore the skills and knowledge they need to become a successful doctor or nurse through a focus on human anatomy and physiology. They explore the basics of human anatomy as they identify different career trajectories in the exciting fields of medicine and healthcare.

Students can expand their understanding of medicine through practical, hands-on medical simulations including conducting a physical exam, applying splints and slings, and controlling external haemorrhaging. Students at the Medicine Summer School will investigate both the practice of medicine and build their knowledge, and strengthen their interpersonal, communication, and collaboration skills—skills essential for future medical professionals.
