The Bachelor of Medical Science (Pathway to Medicine) welcomes school leavers, offering 20 places at both the CQUniversity Rockhampton and Bundaberg campuses. This innovative course ensures successful applicants a provisional direct entry pathway into The University of Queensland's regional Doctor of Medicine program. 

Join us for an informative evening as we provide comprehensive details of the course. We'll cover everything from the application process to regional adjustment points and the benefits of studying and practicing medicine in a regional setting.
