About the programme

The MSc in Clinical Anatomy from The University of Hull provides unique opportunities to immerse yourself in the practical and in-depth study of clinical anatomy.

The programme is built around core dissection-based modules covering the whole body. You will be encouraged to be a self-directed learner and challenge your knowledge and ways of thinking about the human body.

In this programme, you will carry out whole-body dissection in small teaching groups during formal dissection sessions, and at your own pace in your own self-directed learning time, using both Thiel embalmed cadavers that ensure material is as close to living tissue as possible, and Formalin embalmed cadavers that keep the material in defined anatomical relationships.

You will have the unique opportunity to learn from experts in their field who are at the forefront of new developments in clinical anatomy, visiting surgeons and consultants. As well as learning from their expertise, you will be challenged to think differently and learn skills to become a self-directed learner as you continue to develop your anatomy knowledge throughout your medical career – and ultimately make a difference to patients’ lives.

An ideal option for Intercalation

If you are considering taking a year out from your undergraduate Medicine programme to intercalate, and you are interested in developing your clinical anatomical knowledge and skills, this programme is ideal.

Studying a Master’s degree will earn you more points for the Foundation Programme Application System (FPAS) than a Bachelor’s degree. We believe that that our MSc in Clinical Anatomy will give you the skills to be a better clinician, as well as giving you a competitive edge when applying for foundation year training and jobs.

Future prospects

Students on these programmes come from a diverse range of background and go on to develop careers in surgery, clinical practice and allied health disciplines. This programme is also invaluable if you are a practising clinician or healthcare professional considering an academic career or a career in medical education.

This programme offers you the opportunity to conduct whole-body dissection and in doing so develop a deep understanding of the complex nature of the whole of the human body and how that relates to your clinical practice. You will gain the unique experience of working with a range of cadaveric material preserved using Thiel, Formalin and plastination embalming techniques. In particular, dissection using Thiel-embalmed cadavers offers the benefit of viewing material which is as close to living tissue as possible.

You will have the opportunity to learn from experts at the forefront of new developments in clinical anatomy, who create a dynamic and supportive learning environment as part of a diverse and welcoming community. As well as learning from their expertise, you will be challenged to think differently and learn how to become a self-directed learner as you continue to develop your anatomy knowledge throughout your career.
