Year 1
In Year 1 of the UQ MD-Ochsner program, students begin their medical training at The University of Queensland’s St Lucia campus in Brisbane, Australia. The year focuses on foundational medical sciences, integrated with early clinical exposure and case-based learning. Students engage in interactive lectures, clinical skills training, anatomy labs (including cadaveric dissection), and small group tutorials. This first year lays the groundwork for clinical reasoning and prepares students for the transition into more hands-on hospital-based training in subsequent years.
This website is designed to provide important resources specifically for the Year 1 cohort, helping students navigate their academic, clinical, and administrative journey during their first year at UQ.
