Masters (Coursework)
Established more than 20 years ago, RMIT's Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture) was the first and now still the only accredited master's degree in acupuncture in Australia.
The Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture) incorporates Western medicine diagnosis with Chinese medicine theory. A strong focus on evidence-based medicine is combined with the philosophical and cultural aspects of tradtional Chinese medicine.
Extensive clinical observation and practice is part of the degree, with students having access to RMIT's Health Sciences Clinic and Chinese medicine hospitals overseas.
The Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture) qualifies you for registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
