Fast-track your career in health

The course prepares students for leadership roles in health and management and leadership more generally from the context that you start with yourself. So in the health context, we work as part of a multidisciplinary team. Doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, all key stakeholders such as administrators, consumers, patients and families work together across a range of environments and skill sets. So even if you're not in a position with that title already, you are required to have leadership and management skills in whatever you're doing and you can build on that as you progress throughout your career.

The learning opportunities in the modules for each of the subjects in the degree provide learners with the opportunity to take on leadership roles and all the assessment tasks are work based activities. For example, engaging with your team to develop new policies, amend existing policies, undertake environmental audits and design evaluation processes for your workplace.

The curriculum has been developed by experienced academics but most importantly in consultation with senior clinicians. Whenever we update our learning material, we consult with our clinical leaders across different care settings to make sure that the experience is contemporary for the learners and the colleagues enrolled in the degree.
