The Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) at Nelson Mandela University is a six-year professional degree that trains doctors for registration with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA). Offered at NMU's Health Sciences faculty, the programme combines basic medical sciences, clinical training, and community health practice across hospitals and clinics in the Eastern Cape — a province with high health needs and limited medical resources. The programme embeds a social justice ethos, preparing graduates to serve South Africa's most underserved communities. Applications close 30 June and admission is subject to departmental selection.
