The Physician Associate MSc program is delivered by a diverse team of UK-trained PAs, physicians, pharmacists, nurses, midwives, and paramedics. You'll be taught by the same multidisciplinary team you'll collaborate with professionally. The course prepares you with essential competencies including medical history-taking, conducting physical exams, ordering and analyzing diagnostic tests, as well as formulating diagnoses and treatment strategies.

Our integrated curriculum thoroughly prepares graduates for the PA Registration Assessment (PARA), featuring extensive clinical placements across local and regional healthcare settings alongside advanced simulation training.

Since its inception in 2016, with the first cohort graduating in 2018, our program maintains a perfect pass rate on the national PA exam. Student-centered learning drives our teaching approach, fostering transparent communication throughout the two-year journey. While demanding, the program offers profoundly fulfilling outcomes.
