Clinics

Our staff and students are a resource for our whole community. As part of our innovative teaching and learning practice, the University has a suite of community clinics in operation across our region. At these clinics, members of our community can access the skills of our students under the supervision of committed staff members. These clinics provide our students with crucial real-world experience to complement the theory and knowledge gained through more traditional study methods.
