Explore the top medical schools in 2026

Following on from the Subject Rankings release at the end of last month we’re bringing you some more tables highlighting the best universities in different subject fields. 

 

This month we’re focusing on medical schools. Studying medicine can differ depending on which country you choose to study in. For example, the UK offers undergraduate medical degrees which include lectures and practical placements. However, in Canada students will commence their medical degrees after completing a bachelor’s programme in a related field. Studying medicine is a rewarding experience and the rankings below will help you decide the best way to study it.
