About QMUL Barts Malta
Queen Mary University of London's Malta campus (in collaboration with the Malta Government) offers the same MBBS degree awarded by Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry — one of London's oldest and most prestigious medical schools. This is one of very few programmes globally that awards a UK medical degree outside the UK itself. The five-year programme follows the same curriculum, examinations, and external quality assurance as the London campus.
Clinical rotations take place at Mater Dei Hospital and Malta's network of health centres. Students can transfer between the Malta and London campuses, providing flexibility. The campus is located in Gozo, Malta's smaller, more tranquil sister island, offering an intimate study environment with stunning natural beauty.
For UK students, this represents potentially the most advantageous pathway available: a UK medical degree (Barts MBBS) with full, direct GMC recognition, at lower overall cost than studying in London, in a safe English-speaking EU Mediterranean island. The programme suits students who want guaranteed UK medical qualification with Mediterranean lifestyle benefits.
