What we have achieved so far
In the past year, the first postgraduate students have commenced their studies at Aston Medical School; and over 100 schoolchildren from less advantaged local areas are now registered on the Sir Doug Ellis Pathway to Healthcare programme that will prepare them for a career in medicine. We have founded an exciting virtual reality laboratory that will assist our research of brain trauma, stroke rehabilitation and other areas. In 2017, we awarded more alumni scholarships than ever before; however, there is still so much to do.
Next steps
With your support, we will create new facilities for the Students' Union and the Aston Medical School that will enhance campus. We will deliver new pioneering research projects, create more scholarships to support those ambitious students from disadvantaged backgrounds, and we will support more student start up companies. Play a part on this journey and help Aston make a significant and lasting difference to those around us.
