They will be capable of integrating specialized herbal medicine and nutrition, with eligibility for professional registration, ensuring their professional status within the industry.

Electives

To enhance their learning and accommodate personal student preferences, all herbal medicine course students are required to complete a minimum of 2 electives from across the institution's full range of subject offerings of 4 or more credit points. The points associated with these electives cannot be substituted for required units for this qualification, but will provide credit points towards further qualifications.

Clinical Experience

Student interns of herbalist courses are required to participate in a minimum of 408 clinical practicum hours.
