The School of Medicine is the medical school of the University of Leeds, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. The School of Medicine was founded in 1831, before the Yorkshire College which became the University, and now forms part of the University's Faculty of Medicine and Health. The School is compromised of institutes located at multiple sites in West Yorkshire including the Worsley Building, LIGHT, St James's Campus, and Chapel Allerton Hospital. The School of Medicine is primarily linked with two major hospitals for clinical teaching: the Leeds General Infirmary and St James's University Hospital, both run by the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, alongside smaller district NHS Trusts.

History

On 6 June 1831 six physicians and surgeons set up the Leeds Medical School with the aim: {{cquote|it is desirable that a School [of Medicine] be established in Leeds for the purposes of giving such courses of lectures on subjects connected with Medicine and Surgery as will qualify for examination at the College of Surgeons and Apothecaries' Hall.}}

The Medical School admitted its first students in October of that year. It was one of ten provincial medical schools founded in the ten years between 1824-1834.

The founders were:

  • Dr James Williamson
  • Dr Adam Hunter
  • Mr Samuel Smith
  • Mr William Hey III
  • Mr Thomas Pridgin Teale
  • Dr Joseph Prince Garlick

The first premises were the Leeds Public Dispensary on North Street in the town but in 1834 the school was moved to new premises at 1 East Parade. In 1979, it moved to its current location in the Worsley Building.

Teaching

The medical training in Leeds lasts five years. An optional intercalated degree can be taken either at Leeds or another institution, making the course six years. The MBChB degree is divided into three phases. Phase I (Preparing for Clinical Practice) encompasses Years One to Three, Phase II (Clinical Practice in Context) encompasses Year Four and Phase III (Becoming a Doctor) encompasses Year Five and Foundation Year One. Leeds was ranked 19th in the Guardian medicine league table 2017[1] and 3rd for student experience in the Times Higher Education Student Experience Survey 2018.[2]

Institutes within the School of Medicine

The School of Medicine is split up into five institutes::

  • LIME - Leeds Institute of Medical Education - Responsible for the administration and delivery of the School of Medicine's MBChB programme.
  • LIHS - Leeds Institute of Health Sciences - Includes the Nuffield Centre for International Health and Development
  • LICAMM - Leeds Institute of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Medicine
  • LIMR - Leeds Institute of Medical Research at St James's - based at St James's University Hospital
  • LIRMM - Leeds Institute of Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Medicine - based at Chapel Allerton Hospital

Intercalating

Every year around half of all Leeds students take a year out to study another related degree (BSc) in a process called intercalating. Many medical/veterinary/dental students from other universities also come to Leeds to study. The intercalated degrees on offer include: Primary care, International Health, Medical Physics, Human Physiology, Sports Science, Neuroscience, Zoology, Pharmacology, Medical Ethics, Clinical Science, Psychology, Microbiology and Anatomy.
