Your accelerated undergraduate track to a medical degree

While most medicine degrees around Australia are graduate entry only, you can step straight into Medicine at Flinders.

School leavers can complete a medical degree in six years, developing hands-on experience from the first week. There are also pathways for graduate, Indigenous and rural applicants. As leaders in educating future doctors and medical specialists, our curriculum has been adopted by other medical schools in Australia and around the world. Co-located with Flinders Medical Centre in Adelaide, you will have the opportunity to undertake authentic, patient-centred clinical experiences from early on in the degree. But you can also choose to undertake your studies in Darwin, Northern Territory, or one of our many rural hubs.

Our commitment to Indigenous health

We recognise and value the contribution that Indigenous knowledge and Indigenous doctors make to the health of our country

Our Indigenous and non-Indigenous academic staff will lead you to a greater understanding of this heritage, and teach you how to work safely and confidently in a multicultural society. You’ll have the opportunity to undertake placements in Indigenous communities and you’ll help to improve the health of our First Nations people. We also have an Indigenous entry stream, which provides greater opportunities for Indigenous Australians to study medicine at Flinders. 

Seek out placements around the world

Experience a variety of health settings.

Electives and placements can be undertaken almost anywhere in the world. You can put theory into practice in metropolitan Adelaide, rural South Australia, remote communities in the Northern Territory, or international locations such as China, India, Philippines, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Germany, Canada, the US and UK. Prepare yourself for global influence in a rapidly-changing health industry, as well as improving the wellbeing of individuals. With all the opportunities on offer, you will experience a diverse array of patients and environments.
