Supporting your journey into medicine, dentistry and biomedical science
At the heart of the University of Plymouth’s vision, there remains a clear and continued commitment to access and participation. This applies to all student groups across the student life cycle to ensure our students have equal access to higher education, irrespective of their background, in order to be successful while at university and to progress into employment or postgraduate study. The University works collaboratively with the Office for Students to provide and deliver the highest quality access and participation for disadvantaged pupils and under-represented groups.
The University of Plymouth Faculty of Health has a regional and national reputation for its widening access and participation work, and as part of our commitment to access and participation to medicine, dentistry and health courses, we undertake a series of initiatives to raise aspirations and healthcare.
From an access perspective, the student life cycle commences much earlier and our outreach engagement starts at primary school age. This is an important stage as many children have already developed a sense of their aspirations and capabilities by the end of Year 6.
