Train to be a doctor in Brighton

Presentations on the new Brighton and Sussex Medical School will run as part of the University of Sussex Open Day on Tuesday 25 June 2002.

The University of Sussex will be holding its Summer Open Day on the same date between 10am and 3pm, giving you the chance to take a campus tour and attend general information talks on subjects such as student finance and UCAS applications. The day is free and there is no need to book, so feel free to bring friends and family.
