Teaching and Learning
Our MBBS Y4 students presented their Health Research Project (HRP) finding on Saturday September 22, 2012. Their study results were very interesting and generated many ideas for further research.

********************************************************

MBBS Problem Based Public Health Advocacy project offers our year 3 medical students an opportunity to learn how to advocate for improving health in the community. We are very pleased with the achievement of our students who collected on line and through the public place signature collection events 1839 signatures to support their petition for Legislation against Display of Tobacco Products at Points of Sale.
