Oral health
Help combat the shortage of oral health professionals in Australia
As an oral health practitioner, you’ll educate patients about the best oral hygiene practices, advise on preventing disease, and provide treatment for a range of oral health conditions. Our Bachelor of Oral Health (Therapy and Hygiene) is accredited by the Australian Dental Council, so when you graduate you’ll be eligible for registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency. Once you’ve begun your career, you can return to undertake more specialised postgraduate studies to explore leadership or research opportunities.
Health leadership
Inspire your team
A career in health leadership means you not only help people; you empower others to help patients in turn. Start your career with an undergraduate course that aligns with your clinical interests. Then gain advanced leadership skills with a postgraduate qualification – which will be your passport to career opportunities across the spectrum of healthcare services. Whatever your passion, you’ll become a specialist in a field that will help to improve the health and quality of patients, all while you lead and motivate healthcare professionals to be their best, every day.
