About Medicine (p.grad.dip) in Trinity College Dublin

bout the course
The Postgraduate Diploma in Medicine is offered to EU and non-EU medical graduates in training who wish to develop their research skills, broaden their research interests, and develop advanced knowledge in selected areas of clinical and scientific practice.
The course syllabus and curriculum have been developed following consultation with medical trainees in
Ireland to ensure that the course fulfills their needs in terms of higher medical training at national and international level.
A substantial amount of postgraduate medical training takes place in university teaching hospitals; however trainees have few opportunities to maximise integration with the university environment to progress their training needs. In addition postgraduate training incorporates very little time for research. It is vital that trainees are equipped with an ethos of enquiry-led
practice and research skills from the earliest possible postgraduate period in order to maximise their potential research output.
