Academic Foundation Programmes
Academic Foundation Programmes offer a unique training opportunity for those interested in or considering a career in academic medicine. These programmes will give medical school graduates the ability to both attain the training required of them as part of their Foundation Programme, as well as receiving a comprehensive introduction to academic medicine.
The North West Thames Foundation School together with the Faculty of Medicine of Imperial College London and some of its partner NHS Trusts in London have developed a range of exciting Academic Foundation Programmes, which are of the highest standard. We are seeking to recruit highly motivated applicants, who can demonstrate a consistently excellent medical school record. Successful applicants will spend part of their two-year Foundation Programme within academic and researched based environments, working with renowned clinicians and researchers in recognised centres of excellence. Details of how to apply for academic programmes can be found on the academic recruitment page. Academic feedback has been provided by doctors completing their Foundation training in 2010-11.
