Edinburgh Medical School is a large medical school by UK standards, spread across several campuses at the BioQuarter, Western General Hospital, the University central area and Royal Edinburgh Hospital. We deliver a first-class education in first-class facilities by dedicated people who are at the cutting edge.

We offer an excellent experience in an environment where research is cherished and prosecuted. We believe research is an important component of the life of every student, equipping them to effect real change in the world in whatever context they end up working.

The school is divided into three deaneries:
the Deanery of Clinical Sciences, which is largely based on the BioQuarter site

the Deanery of Biomedical Sciences, which is mainly based around the George Square campus in the centre of Edinburgh

the Deanery of Molecular, Genetic and Population Health Sciences.
