Phase I (the first two years) consist of learning through a systems based approach the structure and function of the human body. Teaching is generally delivered via traditional lectures, small group learning, and exposure to anatomical models and cadaveric specimens. Early clinical training is integrated into this phase with extensive clinical correlations, clinical skills teaching and community based general practice experience.

Students will be offered the opportunity to undertake an integrated postgraduate certificate in Health Leadership as a student selected component of phase II.[5]

Aston Medical School will also offer various research options for postgraduate students.
