LKCMedicine – a world-class medical education for tomorrow’s doctors

The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) offers a five-year undergraduate programme leading to a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degree (MBBS) awarded jointly by Imperial College London (Imperial) and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore). Our bespoke curriculum draws extensively from the world-renowned medical curriculum of Imperial, and leverages the strengths of NTU in biomedical sciences, engineering, and humanities. Our School emphasises the clinical relevance of the basic sciences and early patient interaction from the very beginning of the course, training you to put a patient’s individual needs at the centre of all care.

The quality of your clinical training will match the best offered anywhere in the world. LKCMedicine’s primary clinical partner is the National Healthcare Group, a leader in public healthcare recognised for the quality of its medical expertise, facilities and teaching. LKCMedicine will also be partnering other healthcare institutions to ensure that you are exposed to a wide range of clinical and work environments as part of your training. This will allow you to appreciate your role as a medical practitioner in the context of the wider healthcare system, and give you the fullest opportunity to acquire a solid scientific understanding of medicine and the appropriate clinical skills to be leaders in the field of healthcare delivery and medical research. 

With a pioneering integrated and multi-disciplinary MBBS curriculum taught by a distinguished global faculty, LKCMedicine will be redefining medicine and transforming healthcare.

University Clinical Aptitude Test  (UCAT)

Applicants will have to register for the University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) and take the UCAT as part of the criteria for entry to the LKCMedicine MBBS programme.

The University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) is a computer-based admissions test, used by a consortium of UK Universities and non-UK associate member universities including Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) to help select applicants for medical and dental degree programmes. 

It is a two-hour test consisting of five separately timed subtests in multiple-choice format. It is an aptitude test focused on assessing a range of mental abilities and knowledge candidates should already have. 

If one is applying to the AY2024-25 intake of LKCMedicine, one should take UCAT between 10 July and 28 September 2023, prior to applying to LKCMedicine. Only results of the UCAT taken in the twelve-month period prior to admission to LKCMedicine will be considered in the selection process.
