Apollo offers an integrated strategy of medicine rather than simply a dichotomous view of normal human biology and abnormal physiology. Our approach supports students in initiating their building mental models of disease. This clinical-based framework helps pull together disparate threads into a coherent whole. We provide an evidence-based educational program aligned with a constructivist philosophy of learning.
Our students evolve to face the challenges of the craft of medicine. By integrating state-of-the-art clinical facilities and core medical concepts, our students dominate healthcare. Our cohort of guided learners translates knowledge-based learning to real-world experiences. Personalized training and medical education pedagogy, inspire our students and staff to:
Serving as a national model for excellence, our integrated curriculum helps you gain an enquiring approach. An early introduction to patients provides meaning and context to your foundational knowledge. In our integrated curriculum, you will apply foundational concepts to clinical pathophysiology, diagnostics, and therapeutics. Students continually appraise and assimilate evidence to keep abreast of changes in best practice. Problem-solving engages three interdependent components: knowledge base, processing and metacognition skills. Graduates seek, synthesize and test information by questioning the status quo.
Our rigorous curriculum is taught through small group lectures, case-based learning, and one-on-one instruction from world-class faculty. You will gain a comprehensive grounding in medical science, before applying that scientific foundation in the clinical setting. It inspires a professional attitude and skills to maintain lifelong clinical dexterity. Teaching is delivered throughout with reference to findings in academic research.
We implement well-rounded intellectual training with an emphasis on the basic sciences that underpins medicine. We have retained a distinct two and a half year pre-clinical stage, followed by a three-year clinical stage. The Apollo Medical School is relatively small, allowing students and staff to get to know one another and benefit from a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We grow a cohort of dedicated and curious learners through our continual support and guidance.
Phase One
+The first year introduces you to the building blocks of medicine--the basic sciences. This phase establishes a framework of skills, scientific, clinical and societal – a chassis on which to build the practice of medicine. Apollo pares these subjects down to the essentials you'll need in medical practice. The basic science content begins with an introduction to cells and tissues and then proceeds into organ-based blocks with a focus on normal processes.
During the second year, medical students revisit the major organ systems with a focus on abnormal processes. The Year 2 program is primarily devoted to understanding the effect of disease processes on organ structure and function and the actions of drugs. In the course of achieving this objective, the curriculum is designed to help the student prepare for their role as a problem solver. This will involve acquiring basic information, but, more importantly, it will also involve understanding concepts and relationships.
An introduction to early patient contact in the second year, woven throughout the preclinical stage, allows you to combine concepts learned in the classroom and laboratory with bedside learning experiences. You learn core clinical skills that serve as the foundation for your clerkships, medical training, and practice beyond. Students are also assigned to a mentor for the entire academic year.
These foundational sciences include not only the traditional basic biomedical sciences (i.e., anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, histology, pharmacology) but also the social and behavioral sciences. The first two years are organized into core themes of biochemistry, histology and cell biology, embryology, physiology, gross anatomy, neurobiology and normal behavior integrated together. The overarching theme is normal human biology.
