The Faculty of Science, Medicine and Health (SMAH) is positioned to be a major force in connected and science-embedded education and translational science, medical and health research in Australia.

Empowered by first-class teaching and driven by active research and discovery in the top 1% of Universities in the world, this Faculty combines the very best of science, with strong capacity for translation to our global communities' needs and aspirations.

The Graduate School of Medicine (GSM) aims to graduate excellent medical practitioners with a commitment to patient-centred, evidence-based, reflective and cost-effective medical practice, who have the capacity and desire to contribute to the enhancement of health care for persons in all geographic settings but particularly in regional, rural and remote communities.

Closing the gap on Indigenous health and social outcomes is a priority and GSM aims to produce culturally safe medical practitioners.
