Medical physiology and therapeutics

Therapeutics.5880

Medical physiology and therapeutics (MPT) graduates are highly employable. 

Entering fields such as medicine, clinical research, sport, healthcare, public health, medical writing and health communications as well as NHS graduate schemes such as the Scientist Training Programme amongst others, MPT graduates have a wealth of choice as to their graduate destination.

While many graduates choose to pursue a career as a doctor, many others choose roles such as physician’s associate, public health practitioner, medical writer, healthcare advertising or healthcare data analysts.

The skills and knowledge developed as an MPT student can be applied in many different fields and graduates from this course enjoy varied careers that have real impact on peoples’ lives.

 
I've received offers from both a GEM course and undergraduate medicine course. I really appreciate your assistance with the interviews. I left both feeling really confident. Thank you so so so much for your help.
