Postgraduate Course in Clinical Anatomy

The Monash University Department of Anatomy & Developmental Biology and Department of Surgery (Monash Medical Centre) are pleased to announce the  Postgraduate Course in Clinical Anatomy for 2009. The Course will provide postgraduate training in anatomy for graduates wishing to advance their knowledge in anatomy. Though designed for trainees preparing for specialist college examinations, the course is open to graduates from any other health science discipline. In view of previous popularity, registrants are advised to enrol early.

The Course will be taught by anatomists from Monash University along with relevant specialist surgeons. It will involve the use of the Museum and Dissection Room facilities at the Clayton campus. The Course will consist of 16 sessions on Monday evenings from 6.30-9.30pm and will cover the gross anatomy and surgical anatomy of the entire body. Participants in the Course will have access to the Anatomy and Pathology Museums. Examiners for the College of Surgeons will give optional formative assessments if requested. The course does not involve cadaveric dissection, but will include examination of wet specimens.

Attendees will receive a CD of relevant software and a comprehensive syllabus. Each participant will receive a copy of the College approved anatomy text 'General Anatomy - Principles & Applications' (McGraw Hill 2008). Participants completing the course in 2009 will receive a Certificate of Attendance.
