Professor Encourages Medically Minded Students

Head of the School of Medicine at Griffith University, A/Professor Jennifer Williams, spoke with Pacific senior students about studying Medicine through their program based at the University of the Sunshine Coast. Professor Williams spoke about the varied pathways into Medicine and the study beyond an initial Bachelor of Medical Science undergraduate degree into specialist fields.  She spoke about the various undergraduate degrees that can lead into Medicine if students don’t gain the highly competitive OP/ATAR required for direct entry and the benefits of starting in another area of health, including working in that profession whilst completing further post-graduate study within Medicine. If you would like information about further study options and pathways to Medicine, see Mrs Purcell in the Careers Room.
