The Emergency Medicine Research Course is a semester-long program run conjointly by Monash University and The Alfred Emergency & Trauma Centre.

The course is made up of two postgraduate units Emergency Medicine Research Methods and Evidence Based Medicine (12 credit points):

  • Emergency Medicine Research Methods enables students to acquire the necessary practical skills to design and conduct a research project.
  • Evidence Based Medicine aims to equip students with the necessary skills to identify and incorporate the best available research evidence to their clinical training and clinical practice.

The program involves completion of self-directed weekly online study modules, four assignments and two sets of intensive days. It is delivered part time and requires a commitment of approximately 20-30 hours a week.

This course can either be completed as a standalone certificate, or as one unit towards the Master of Public Health with Monash University.

This course also satisfies completion of the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine (ACEM) research requirement.

Who should attend?

  • Advanced trainees in Emergency Medicine: successful completion satisfies the research requirement for ACEM.
  • Clinicians with an interest in emergency medicine research.
