Students undertake a total of 2000 hours of full-time clinical study. As placements are located throughout Australia and availability is limited in each community, students may be placed at locations that are not of their choosing. Students must prepare financially and personally to relocate for placements, and are responsible for the associated costs. Students must meet specific pre-clinical health, safety, security and licensing requirements prior to each placement, and must disclose any condition that may put themselves or the public at significant risk while on placement. For full course requirements including mandatory health requirements such as immunisations and vaccination advice, security requirements and other compulsory requirements, visit Bachelor of Medical Sonography and Graduate Diploma of Medical Sonography.
