Are you a graduate (or about to graduate from your first degree) and want to find out more about joining RCSI’s four year accelerated Graduate Entry Medicine (GEM) degree programme?
The RCSI GEM Open Day represents a fantastic opportunity to find out more about RCSI, the GEM programme and life as an RCSI student.
During the 2025 GEM Open Day attendees:
- Had the opportunity to experience RCSI's brand-new, state-of-the-art Education and Research Centre at Connolly Hospital, where Year 2 GEM students spend most of their time;
- Received an introduction to the programme by the Director of Graduate Entry Medicine, Professor Seamus Sreenan;
- Experienced our simulation facilities;
- Met with current RCSI GEM students across pre-clinical and clinical years and participated in a Q&A session;
- Enjoyed an informal lunch where they had the opportunity to chat with current GEM students; and
- Heard from recent graduates of the programme, who offered insight into life after graduation.
