Our course lets you commence your medical studies from day one and equips you with the knowledge, skills and attributes to begin your career as a medical practitioner.
With a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to medical training, this course is equivalent to that offered at Monash University’ s Australia campus. The selection criteria, learning objectives and assessments are identical.
This course draws on Monash’ s world-leading expertise in medical practice and research, and our school’ s particular strengths in the cardiometabolic field, infection and immunity, global public health and neuroscience. Many of our graduates have gone on to practise in Australia.
Our approach to learning
Problem-based learning is a key integrating feature in the early years of this course. It’ s a case-based method of teaching, with each session giving you context for the course objectives and content so that you’ re aware of the relevance of the curriculum and its components to medicine and medical practice. You’ ll be encouraged to discuss the situation presented in the case narrative, and to identify scientific and clinical details that may be relevant to the case and the week’ s classes.

Overall, the experience laid a strong foundation for my career and reaffirmed my commitment to becoming a compassionate and competent doctor.”
