“What inspired me to undertake Master of Rehabilitation at James Cook University is my passion for interventional cardiology and an interest in medical research. This course offered me the opportunity to explore the benefits of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, which is often required for patients with advanced heart disease. The Master of Rehabilitation offers graduates a global platform by which they can explore their field of interest, alongside other health practitioners in the multidisciplinary team. It provides a delicate balance between flexibility in research and mentoring by experienced researchers at the university. I would highly recommend the program.”
