Veterinary Public Health Management - Program Outline

The Veterinary Public Health Management (VPHMgt) program offers three nested award courses at Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and Masters levels, specifically designed to equip professionals with particular expertise in aspects of veterinary public health relevant to their current and future employment in the national and international animal health arena.

The program provides an appropriate learning environment for busy professionals located at regional and rural centres throughout Australia and abroad. It is a flexible program delivered largely through distance education units, using online classrooms, with three short residential intensive blocks (3-5 days in length) during the course of the program.
