About the University of Birmingham and Scholarship
The university’s early origins may be discovered at The Queen’s College, which is related to William Sands Cox and his aim to build a medical school that was entirely Christian in contrast to the contemporary London medical institutions. Further research revealed that the Birmingham Medical School was inspired by John Tomlinson, the first surgeon at the Birmingham Workhouse Infirmary and later at the Birmingham General Hospital. These programs, which took place in the winter of 1767–1768, were the first of their sort to be offered in England or Wales.
However, the first clinical training was carried out by medical apprentices at the General Hospital, which was founded in 1779. Cox began teaching in December 1825, although the Birmingham Workhouse Infirmary’s medical school wasn’t founded until 1828. Queen Victoria approved of the Clinical Hospital in Birmingham and permitted it to call itself “The Queen’s Hospital.” It was the first rural teaching hospital in England. In 1843, the medical institution changed its name to Queen’s Institution. The university is one of the twelve top universities that together enroll more than half of the students with the best A-level grades, according to data from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE).
