Degrees and Diplomas

The College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine offers four undergraduate programmes leading to the Degrees of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB), Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery (BVM&S), Bachelor of Science in Medical Sciences and Bachelor of Science in Oral Health Sciences.

The Degree with Honours of Bachelor of Science (Veterinary Science) is normally awarded to specially selected students after the successful completion of a year of study in one of the Honours Schools, intercalated at the end of Year 2 or Year 3.
