Whether you are looking for an undergraduate or post- graduate course, postgraduate research opportunities, partnerships and collaboration in academic activities, short courses, conference partners and facilities, professional development, study abroad, clinical placements or electives, and other pharmaceutical and health related activities -look no further! Already, Australians in various health professions have contributed greatly to the world's knowledge of medical and  health sciences. The Royal Flying Doctor Service, for example, led the world in its innovative approach to the health-care of remote and scattered communities. Australian researchers have made outstanding contributions to world knowledge. The National  Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), which has become the major founding body for medical, dental and health research in Australian Universities, funds research grants, fellowships and numerous research programs to the tune of millions of dollars every year. Pharmaceutical companies and other industries also work in close collaboration with Australian universities.

You can be sure that Australia will be friendly and safe, with a great climate, high standards of living and academia, with wide cultural diversity.
