Clinical schools & placements

Industry placements

The ANU experience is about learning inside and outside the classroom, with opportunities to choose an international learning experience, develop leadership capabilities, contribute to the community and prepare for your future career.

We've built strong partnerships with urban and rural organisations and health providers including hospitals, general practices, private and not-for-profit mental health services, and government departments to allow our students a wide variety of choices for their clinical learning.

To ensure your clinical experience is second to none you will have a wide variety of choices including locations in Canberra, Sydney, rural NSW, the Northern Territory, and overseas.

You will learn from renowned, experienced health care professionals and come to appreciate what the health system has to offer and where you can make a difference in the future.
