but also incorporates part of the well-established undergraduate and postgraduate School
of Medicine.
The spacious and light interior of the building consists of seminar rooms, extensive clinical skills
laboratories, inter-professional Health Library and IT laboratories, which not only provide high-tech
learning and teaching facilities, but also allow and encourage multi disciplinary learning and team
working, an approach that we believe is key to developing a professional healthcare workforce for
the future.
The School has a high standard of academic staff who are also engaged in clinical practice, which facilitates

This enhances further the effective learning of post-registration students who are also working in clinical practice.
The School has excellent clinical skills and library facilities to aid learning and teaching and excellent

of study.

supporting and working flexibly with our students. Our Continuing Pr ٙ\
