Kent and Medway Medical School

Kent and Medway Medical School (KMMS) is a medical school based in Canterbury, Kent.[1] It is jointly run by the University of Kent and Canterbury Christ Church University, and offers around 100 places per year. Funding for KMMS was announced in March 2017 following a competition to allocate 1500 new medical training posts across England,[2] and the first 100 students enrolled in 2020. Brighton and Sussex Medical School acts as a partner institution.[3] KMMS offers five-year undergraduate programmes, with a focus on specialties currently under-represented in Kent and Medway.[4]
