Medicine

Program Overview

Medicine is a unique course in that students study a broad range of subjects with the primary goal of understanding the science and practice of healing. Medicine and healthcare are constantly evolving as new knowledge and therapies emerge to prevent and treat illness. Each day brings a new patient with new healthcare challenges. How competitive: applicants from the EU apply through the CAO, where Medicine ranks school results together with the HPAT-Ireland aptitude test. In round 1 of 2026, places went to applicants with 741 combined points or more (not everyone on 741 got a place). Applicants from outside the EU apply to Trinity directly and are assessed individually.
