Postgraduate Course Guide 2017 Exercise Sciencewww.acu.edu.au Dr Stuart Cormack, Senior Lecturer EXECUTIVE DEAN’S WELCOME
The Faculty offers postgraduate programs by coursework and by research for professionals in the areas of clinical exercise physiology, clinical education and practice (in nursing), counselling, health administration, high performance sport, mental health (with a specialisation in nursing), paramedicine, psychology, public health, rehabilitation (with specialisations in gerontological physiotherapy, neurological physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech pathology), simulation education, and social work. We conduct research that makes a difference. Whether it be award-winning stroke studies, or investigations into how the world population will find food in the future – ACU research aims to improve social, health and living conditions, influence public policy, and improve our knowledge in specialist fields. As part of a research intensification program, the University has established three new research institutes focusing on health sciences – the Mary MacKillop Institute for Health Research, the Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, and the Institute for Health and Ageing. The program drives excellence in research for the benefit of our students, our communities, and the world. This rich research culture informs our teaching and engages our staff with experts across the globe. In the recent 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) assessment, ACU received the top score of five in Human Movement and Sports Science, Nursing, Public Health and Health Services, and Psychology. If you are considering postgraduate study at ACU, I urge you to read on. The Faculty of Health Sciences provides an exciting and dynamic environment in which to pursue further study. I am confident you will find your studies with us a rewarding experience.
