"Monash College and Monash University have changed my life tremendously. They have made me the person I am today, they’ve taught me valuable life lessons, and life skills such as time management, independence and communicating with different cultures. I don’t think I would do it any differently other than to do it with Monash.”

Foundation year gives you the opportunity to complete experiments and group work. You'll build your communication skills, which will help you effectively explain information to your patients and colleagues."
