The Medical Schools Council (MSC) represents all UK medical schools, working together to improve healthcare for all. We collaborate with sector leaders and experts to shape medical education and training for future generations, helping to strengthen the NHS and its ability to deliver quality care.
We are proud to represent all 52 medical schools in the UK. As a membership organisation, the MSC offers a supportive network for heads of medical schools and their teams.
As the authoritative voice of UK medical schools, we bring together leaders from across the country to collaborate and offer expert insight on critical issues in medical education and research.
Through collaboration, we shape national strategies and initiatives while ensuring the autonomy of individual institutions remains intact.
We work to ensure the UK’s world-leading medical education keeps pace with the evolving needs of the healthcare landscape.
We aim to make the medical profession more accessible, especially for individuals from underrepresented backgrounds.
By working with stakeholders, we advocate for and support the vital clinical academic workforce responsible for cutting-edge research and training the next generation of doctors.
We emphasise the crucial role medical school research plays in advancing healthcare and medical knowledge.
We facilitate smoother transitions between undergraduate and postgraduate training, ensuring stronger partnerships between medical schools and healthcare providers.
