“What really attracted me to Flinders was that the College Public Health and Medicine is located right in Flinders Medical Centre. Right from the start of the semester, students are exposed to the clinical aspect of medicine. I have found the staff and students at Flinders to be very warm and genuine. Flinders works hard at making sure international students are connected. The International Student Services team is welcoming and always open to listening to our thoughts and concerns.”

Flinders was the right choice for me since it has a very supportive team dedicated to international students.

I find that by applying medical knowledge in actual hospital settings and with actual patients, it helps me consolidate my knowledge and skills. My experiences so far have allowed me to train various skills that are needed as a medical intern upon graduation.
