Is nursing a good course in Australia for Indian students?

For students who want to work in Australia, yes: a Bachelor of Nursing or a graduate-entry nursing master's leads to registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Board, and nursing is a large employer in every state.

Can I study MBBS in Australia?

Medicine is taught at Monash, Sydney, UNSW, UQ, UWA and Western Sydney on this site, at A$89,796–109,328 a year, with very few international places and admission tests. See the MBBS section for entry and the NMC rules for practising in India.

What is a graduate-entry nursing master's?

A two-year master's for graduates in another field that leads to registration as a nurse. Charles Darwin, Adelaide and several others on this site teach one.

How much does physiotherapy cost in Australia?

Four-year bachelor's A$39,646–54,300 a year; two-year graduate-entry master's A$34,736–79,370 a year.

Do public health and biomedical science lead to registration?

No. They lead to research, policy, laboratory and industry jobs, not to a registered clinical profession.

Nursing and Health Courses in Australia for Indians

Accreditation comes before ranking

For a clinical career in Australia the course must be approved by the relevant national board: nursing by the Nursing and Midwifery Board, pharmacy by the Pharmacy Board, physiotherapy and occupational therapy by their boards. All are part of the national scheme run by Ahpra. Clinical placements also mean compulsory checks, vaccinations and fixed intakes, so apply early.
