Study Medicine in Australia

For students interested in studying medicine, Australia offers internationally recognised, high-quality qualifications and state-of-the-art facilities, both on and off campus. If you're looking for a professional career in medicine, there are two main pathways on offer in Australia that allow you to qualify as a doctor. The first option involves a five to six-year undergraduate degree in medicine and surgery. The second option is to complete a three-year bachelor degree in a related field, such as science, health science or biomedicine, before undertaking a graduate-entry medicine program such as the four-year Doctor of Medicine. All medicine courses in Australia include extensive practical experience through placements in clinics and hospitals.
