Introduction

The British Medical Association is conducting research into medical student experiences of professionalism.



We invite you to participate in a short survey (10-15 minutes) about:
  • what professionalism means to you as a medical student in 2025
  • your experiences of professionalism at medical school
  • your trust in institutions such as your medical school and the General Medical Council (GMC)

Participation is voluntary and responses are anonymous. The results of the study will help shape policy and education in medical professionalism within UK medical schools.
