Hello,
There are lots of different roles (for both clinicians and non-clinicians) available in the RAMC, you can browse these through the job finder section on our website.
If you want to join as a doctor then you will need to have a place at university to study medicine (most people applying for a bursary apply in the 1st or 2nd years of university).
