About

The only course of its type in Australia, the Graduate Certificate in Ultrasound Studies is the first step on your pathway to a career in sonography.

This course is suited to graduates from any Bachelor’s degree inclusive of human anatomy and physiology units and is designed to develop practical skills and principal knowledge in sonography.
