Hi to you bothI just finished the first year of the program and found it good. Still fine tuning the course however which has been a little frustrating, ie unit manuals being made available week to week rather than up front, however a lot of the teething problems will be fixed before next year. I finished a Science degree last year, major in physiology and Psyc, the anatomy was a struggle for me, they throw it at you thick and fast! There are a broad span of students, from myotherapists, nurses, exercise physiologists to science students like myself.
I looked at some other 2 year programs, but ended up picking Melbourne due to the recognition overseas and within Aus. To be honest, the only benefit has been the quality of the teaching staff and the opportunity to make professional connections. There has been construction all year in the Physio building so we have been all over campus, and we don't have access to the facilities on weekends, which we will be pushing to change.
It has been a really full on program, included placements in the first year. The semesters are about 20 weeks, so it keeps you busy. Do you have anything specific you want to know?
We actually have a large Canadian and American student group within the course. We had about 80 students at the end of the year, 3 or 4 dropped out during the year. I passed on this post to the Canadians, but they must be lazy buggersThere is a rep that students at Mu can be spoilt etc... But I have found that not to be the case. Especially with postgrad as well, people are generally pretty good. Our group is a really good group, lots of fun and easy to get along with.
