Curriculum (Overview)

Professor Conlon with two medical students

The curriculum is based on a spiral model, where student learning is progressive and becomes more complex at each phase of the curriculum. Each year has a component of professional development, clinical and biomedical sciences which is revisited in greater depth or in a more applied fashion.

Assessment

The assessment structure is wide and varied and includes in-course, evaluation of practical and clinical skills, as well as case studies, research projects, formal written and oral examinations and objective structured clinical examinations.
