The Medics in Primary Schools (MIPS) programme is a joint Queen’s University – Sentinus activity which brings student doctors into the classroom over a period of 8 – 10 weeks to teach science. Topics covered include healthy skin, healthy heart and lungs, healthy brain and healthy body. The medical students bring science to life for pupils through practical activities, demonstrations and the use of medical equipment.

Student guides are available at the links below for both online and face to face delivery of the programme.
