The School of Public Health and Community Medicine offers clinicians the opportunity of undertaking postgraduate studies in geriatric medicine, by means of distance learning packages. Our programs aim to provide students with comprehensive, up-to date material, highly relevant to clinicians in their practice of geriatric medicine. Course materials have been carefully prepared by specialists in the field of geriatric medicine, psychogeriatrics, pharmacology and rehabilitation.
Students liaise with lecturers, access activities, submit and receive work, via the Internet.
Our distance education packages allow study to be flexible and accessible to busy local practitioners, those in rural areas or overseas. Please, explore our web site. You may navigate through it using hyperlinked text, or the blue tool bar at the top left hand corner of this page. We have included a considerable amount of detail about our courses and our lecturers, so you feel you know something about us, should you choose to enrol with us. Whilst we would encourage clinicians to undertake study at the Master's level, our courses form an articulated program, so you may undertake study at a lower level, but transfer to a higher level at a later date.
