Masters (Coursework)
With the need to improve the delivery of psychiatric care to a broader cross-section of the community, the University of Melbourne's renowned Master of Psychiatry course is now being offered online using the latest technology and interactive learning platforms.
Delivered by the Department of Psychiatry and fully accredited by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP), this course is ideal for medical practitioners looking for the opportunity to advance their psychiatry knowledge, skills and career in psychiatry.
As well as exploring the latest cutting-edge theoretical concepts in psychiatry and their relationship to clinical practice, you will also develop a broad understanding of the cultural and sociocultural differences that exist in our community and geographical region, and their relationship to individuals and mental illness.
As a graduate of this course, you'll have gained sufficient theoretical and clinical knowledge to sit and pass the exams required by RANZCP.
Graduates of the on-campus course have gone on to have highly successful clinical careers and the vast majority have gone on to become consultant psychiatrists across Australia and internationally.
It takes about 20 minutes to complete the form using the online application system.
You can save your work in progress and complete the application at a later date.
Admissions for this course are not capped per intake, so you do not need to apply for multiple intakes. If you are unsure which intake you wish to apply for, please note that you can change your application later by contacting the student support team.
Once you initiate an application, you will be assigned a personal Student Support Consultant who will guide you through the process.
