College of Medicine and Public Health: our geographic footprint throughout the Central Australian Corridor

The College of Medicine and Public Health has a considerable presence in rural and remote communities throughout South Australia and the Northern Territory. This geographic footprint throughout the Central Australian Corridor is a defining feature of the University, and our regional academic programs and research positively impact some of the most under-served communities in Australia. 

NT: the College has an extensive presence across the Northern Territory, and in true Top End style, our activities are well spread out: there are 100 staff across our five locations in Darwin,  Alice Springs, Katherine, Nhulunbuy and Tennant Creek.

As well as delivering the Flinders NT Medical Program (NTMP), Flinders NT provides student placement and workforce capacity support through the Remote and Rural Interprofessional Placement Learning (RIPPL), manages the Centre for Remote Health, and the Flinders NT Regional Training Hub, focussed on the rural medical training pipeline.

SA: Flinders Rural Health SA facilitates high quality multidisciplinary health education and research across rural communities in South Australia including the Parallel Rural Community Curriculum (PRCC) program, and the Rural Junior Doctor Program.

Our Flinders Rural Health campuses are located in Mt. Gambier, Victor Harbor, Murray Bridge, the Barossa and Renmark, but we do also accommodate medical, nursing and allied health students on placement in some of the more remote regions of South Australia, including Cooper Pedy, Roxby and Ceduna.
