Teaching program

Our Clinical Teaching Programs are taught by experts and encompass areas such as the Doctor of Medicine (MD), Paramedicine, Clinical Education, and Counselling, each tailored to meet the evolving demands of the health sector, with a strong emphasis on practical experience, interdisciplinary collaboration, and innovative approaches to healthcare delivery.

Medical and paramedic placements are offered across South Australia and the Northern Territory, providing students with diverse, real-world clinical exposure in a variety of settings. These programs are designed to equip students with the skills, knowledge, and ethical grounding necessary to excel in dynamic clinical environments and contribute meaningfully to community health outcomes.
