Swansea University’s Physician Associate (PA) Studies programme was established in 2016 and has a successful track record of teaching, student support, progression, and success at the PA national exam. The MPAS programme runs over two years, with students spending roughly half of their time in university and the other half on placement. The programme has several modules, and content taught is based on the PA National Curriculum (FPA 2022) and the PA and AA generic and shared leaning outcomes (GMC, 2022). There is a mixture of staff on the programme from various healthcare professions which adds to the richness and diversity of the teaching and experiences we can offer to students.
