Health Sciences’ postgraduate courses

The Faculty of Health Sciences is one of Australia’s leading providers of health science education and through its predecessor, Lincoln Institute, has a long and distinguished history in the education of health professionals. 126 courses are offered by Faculty and there are approximately 1500 students enrolled in our postgraduate programs. The academic staff are practitioners, as well as teachers and researchers. They bring practical experience to their teaching and supervision and have a wide variety of research interests and expertise. The Faculty is located at the Albury-Wodonga, Bendigo, Melbourne (city), Melbourne (Bundoora), Mildura and Shepparton campuses and other metropolitan sites including the Bouverie Centre at Brunswick and clinical sites at metropolitan hospitals. Students return to study for many reasons: professional development; change of career; pursuing research studies; or for general interest. The Faculty of Health Sciences offers courses to cater for all of these needs.
