Students in the College of Medicine and Dentistry have the opportunity to participate in an exciting variety of international clinical placements.
Engagement in the tropics worldwide is a key element of JCU’s mission. The College of Medicine and Dentistry aims to train and educate graduates who are able to meet the health needs of communities in the tropics.
Based throughout the Asia Pacific region these carefully developed and well supported clinical placements enhance the learning and scope of practice of our undergraduate students.
Students undertaking these placements further their understanding of the health needs of our region and experience first-hand the differences in health care systems, access to care and health beliefs.
