comprehensive health campuses in the South-East Asian region.

clinical, rehabilitation and socio-behavioural health, postgraduate
courses. Recognising that the study needs of students are diverse in
our postgraduate courses, the entry criteria, outcomes and modes of
delivery are varied to better match student needs, experience and
circumstances. Many of our courses are offered through distance
education for students who would find attending oncampus classes
difficult. Innovative use is made of technologies, both on and off
campus, to facilitate access to study by busy professionals and people
in other pressing occupations.

health campuses in the South-East Asian region.
STUDY AREAS
PROFESSIONAL MASTERS
Health Sciences offers a range of professional masters courses to enable
health professionals to update their theoretical base and learn advanced
practice skills. The courses are generally of three-semester duration
full-time. However, they have flexibility to give due credit to work
experience so that eligible students may receive their qualifications in
less than the usual time.
Professional Masters
GRADUATE ENTRY MASTERS
The physical therapies at Curtin have developed graduate entry masters
programs for graduates from health disciplines who are looking to change
their career direction. A major reason for initiating these programs is
community demand for more occupational therapists, physiotherapists and
speech pathologists. The programs are completed in two years full-time
study. Entry to the programs is competitive. Applications are assessed on past academic achievement and
work experience. Bridging assistance may be available where students
need assistance with a study area.
