Combined University of Sydney PhD/Dermatology Fellowship Training Program

An initiative of the Dean to build partnerships with the medical colleges has led to the establishment of an exciting new program with the Australasian College of Dermatologists. For the first time a new combined FACD/PhD Program will be offered, allowing candidates to complete a Fellowship in Dermatology and gain a PhD from The University of Sydney.

Commencing in 2011, the successful applicant will spend three years completing a PhD in Sydney Medical School’s Discipline of Dermatology followed by the Australasian College of Dermatologists' clinical dermatology training program in NSW.

Professor John Horvath and the Workforce Education and Development Group are working with a number of other professional colleges to develop similar programs. Further information about these projects can be obtained from Tim Shaw or Jackie Ross
