Admissions
To be considered for admission to the 1.5-year pathway (with admission credit applied) you will need completion of a bachelor's degree or equivalent in a related discipline (such as nursing or allied health) plus at least two years of full-time equivalent relevant work experience (for example as a health professional, allied health science professional, medical administrator or health information manager). Without admission credit, the course is completed over 2 years full-time and requires only completion of a bachelor's degree in any discipline.
