• We are embedded within the Clinical Rehabilitation and Aged Care services at Flinders Medical Centre. This provides excellent professional connections, research opportunities and access to clinically advanced facilities.
• We have strong partnerships across the private and public health sectors, including rehabilitation centres across Australia, facilitating connections and research being undertaken in the clinical setting.
• Our program is one of few nationally and internationally that provides inter-disciplinary education. Our teaching staff are experienced clinicians from a range of disciplines including allied health, medicine, nursing, and bioengineering, providing you a comprehensive learning experience.
• You can undertake a clinical placement giving you the chance to build industry connections, further your practical skills and widen your experience in a variety of settings. Placement opportunities include Flinders Medical Centre, ACH Group, South Australian Brain Injury Rehabilitation Service, and Orthotics and Prosthetics Australia.
• Our students often remain connected with us upon completion of their Clinical Rehabilitation degree and we welcome opportunities to continue creative and inventive research with our former students.

• You will develop advanced knowledge and skills in clinical rehabilitation.
• Specialised areas including neurological, spinal cord injury and musculoskeletal rehabilitation provide you with opportunities for clinical and academic leadership in rehabilitation.

• We offer a largely unique interdisciplinary education for a range of health practitioners either working or wishing to work in clinical rehabilitation both nationally and globally.
• Flinders has a range of postgraduate clinical rehabilitation course offerings with on-campus, online, part time and full-time options. We offer short courses for professional development, and our staff can supervise your higher degree by research through the Master of Health and Clinical Research.
• We are proactive in identifying areas of contemporary significance for clinicians, addressing the concerns of the Australian and global health sector.
• We aim to provide a culturally responsible service and support culturally safe frameworks within our teaching.

• Many of our teaching staff are also highly active researchers, recognised internationally, and members of the Caring Futures Institute, among other research centres.
• Our strong research culture allows our staff and students access to the latest research for evidence-based learning.

The Master of Clinical Rehabilitation (Neurological Physiotherapy) and Master of Clinical Rehabilitation (Occupational Therapy) each have a 2-week intensive placement which occurs in Adelaide. Otherwise our programs can be completed fully online.

There is one option topic available that involves 2 days per week of work integrated learning in the workplace, in Adelaide. However, this topic is most suited to students who are wishing to upskill their knowledge of the Australian rehabilitation system.

It is recommended that students set aside 10 hours per week for each 4.5 unit of study. This includes face-to-face classes, pre-reading and assessments. If you enrol into 18.0 units, which is considered a full-time study load, you would expect to commit 40 hours per week to your university studies.

As you progress through the course students can find that their availability or commitment to their studies changes. Students have the option to apply for an early exit once they have met the requirements for a Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma of Clinical Rehabilitation.
