About Queensland

Live and learn in unique locations from tropical rainforests and beaches to rich farmland, mountains and hinterlands to the red dirt of the Queensland outback. Life in Queensland offers plenty, including easy connectivity between rural, regional and metropolitan centres. 

Queensland provides registrars with a distinctive Rural Generalist training experience, combining comprehensive training with unique and exciting medicine. As a result, registrars can develop a diverse skill set and make a real impact in communities where they are needed most. 

Along with geographic diversity, great weather, and spectacular outdoors, the sunshine state also offers over 200 Core Generalist Training (CGT) posts and more than 60 Advanced Specialised Training (AST) posts in welcoming and lively communities. Available ASTs include Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Health, Adult Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Mental Health, Paediatrics, Palliative Care, Population Health, Remote Medicine and Surgery.
