Students are required to complete clinical placements and rotations across all four years of study. In years three and four, placements are undertaken in various settings including aged care facilities, public and private hospitals, general practice, and community-based services in urban and rural areas across Australia. Rural placements are available to domestic students only, and students in the Kimberley Centre for Remote Medical Training undertake their clinical years in rural locations in Western Australia.

Yes, the Doctor of Medicine is accredited by the Australian Medical Council (AMC). To practice as a medical doctor in Australia, graduates must register with the Medical Board of Australia.

The Doctor of Medicine is offered at three campuses: Fremantle (WA), Broome (WA), and Sydney (NSW). Students enrolled in the Kimberley Centre for Remote Medical Training (KCRMT) spend their first two years learning on the Broome campus and then undertake their clinical years in rural locations in Western Australia.

The program is available as a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP), where the Australian Government subsidises part of the fees and eligible students may defer their student contribution using a HECS-HELP loan. Domestic Full Fee-Paying places are also available, with eligible students able to apply for FEE-HELP to assist with tuition fees. International Full Fee places are also offered.
