About
ASMPH's mission is to form "physicians-for-others" who excel in three key areas: as outstanding clinicians with mastery of knowledge, skills, and compassion; as dynamic leaders capable of managing people, systems, and resources; and as social catalysts competent in addressing issues of ill-health, poverty, and inequity. This multifaceted approach to medical education sets ASMPH apart from traditional medical schools.
Highlights
The school's educational philosophy is rooted in the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm, which emphasizes context, experience, reflection, action, and evaluation. ASMPH regards learning as best achieved in a community of kindred spirits, with teachers acting as facilitators and enablers of each student's potential 3. This approach fosters a supportive learning environment that prepares students for the challenges of the medical profession.
ASMPH is driven by a set of core values that shape its culture and guide its actions. These values include synergy, rigor, magis (striving for excellence), being persons for others, and love of country. These principles are woven into the fabric of the school's curriculum and activities, encouraging students to become compassionate, skilled, and socially responsible healthcare professionals.
The school's commitment to nation-building through health education, research, and service is evident in its strategic roadmap. ASMPH focuses on achieving health for all, with a particular emphasis on serving the poor. By combining rigorous medical training with a strong emphasis on leadership and social responsibility, ASMPH aims to produce graduates who are not only excellent clinicians but also agents of positive change in the Philippine healthcare system and society at large.
