Medicine Pathway

Join the next generation of doctors making a positive impact on rural health with our Medical Pathway course.

Available to students who have just graduated from year 12, you can study our pathway to medicine degree in either Rockhampton or Bundaberg.

Thanks to partnerships with the local hospital and health services, you’ll develop hands-on experience and build your professional network. You'll join a small cohort of students, allowing you to build meaningful connections with your peers and teaching staff. On completion of the undergraduate degree, you have the opportunity for direct entry into the University of Queensland's Doctor of Medicine Program.

      I chose this course because I would be able to stay at home and not move away, so I would have the support of my family when completing the degree. The second reason was that I would be able to study in Rockhampton, which is Darumbal land. Darumbal is the tribe that I am from.
