In the Master of Health you'll develop the theoretical and practical skills required to meet the demand for skilled staff in the health sector. To qualify for entry, you’ll need a Bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline, and for some subjects you’ll normally be a registered health professional in that area. The path you take will depend on your previous academic achievements and your professional goals. As a guide, for each 30-point course you take at the University, you should allocate around 10 hours per point for self-directed study, research, assessments and attendance at lectures and workshops. If you’re studying full-time, you can expect a workload of 40 hours of study time a week for much of the year. Part-time students doing one course per trimester will need to allocate approximately 20 hours of study a week. Make sure you take this into account if you are working full-time.
