Welcome to Medicine
Medicine is the parent discipline for a number of sub-disciplines falling within the scope of, or allied to, the Discipline of Medicine. This large and active discipline is responsible for the internal medicine component of the MBChB programme, for postgraduate students specialising in Internal Medicine and for qualified specialists training within a subspecialty. With all the other sub-disciplines being fully involved in the delivery of teaching, Dermatology, Emergency Medicine and Neurology are recognised by the Health Professions Council as separate specialties, and these sub-disciplines offer their own MMed programmes leading to specialisation.
HoD: Medicine is Dr Nombulelo Magula.
