Case-based, small-group learning (CBL) is thedominant learning mode during the early yearso the curriculum. Learning is structured aroundclinical cases o the most common and importantdiseases. Lectures in the medical disciplines

such as pathology, anatomy, physiology andpharmacology are careully staged throughout theCBL cases. In Year 1, students will also undertaketwo semesters o Fundamentals o BiomedicalScience, a course specically designed or medicalstudents.
