Personal Academic Mentor:
You will be assigned an Academic Mentor from a pool of trained personnel drawn from academic staff in the Medical School.
Personal Academic Mentors are your first point of contact while studying at the Medical School and can provide assistance and guidance on a range of issues that may affect your wellbeing, attendance and educational progress. Personal Academic Mentors may also help with your personal development planning and careers advice. Your mentor may also direct you to Welfare and other support services as appropriate.
