4th Yr MSA

Dear Students

Welcome to the 4th Yr MSA website.

Medical and Scientific Attachments

The MSAs are 3 weeks in length.

MSAs offer opportunities in both clinical and non-clinical specialty areas and their scientific underpinnings. The MSAs provide you with the opportunity to select attachments which have particular interest and relevance to you. MSAs are for both Year 4 and Year 5 students, therefore, you will find students from both years doing MSAs at the same time.

Research Components

The Year 4 Research Proposal is compulsory and one half day is set aside for this project each week. Students should also meet with their supervisor once a month as part of the formal assessment and to ensure that the project is on track.

Common Program

The Common Program will consist of one half day per week (Thursday afternoon) with the aim of integrating the principles of basic science and clinical practice. This is an examinable component.
