Hanafin approves UL medicine graduate course
The university was approved to offer one of a number of graduate medicine courses by Education Minister Mary Hanafin yesterday.
It will take in half of the first 60 degree holders to begin such courses in September — the other 30 are being offered by the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland (RCSI) in Dublin. The CAO has already received more than 500 applications from graduates or people finishing degrees this summer, and they must now nominate which college they want to study at in order of preference.
