Murdoch University
School of Veterinary Medicine
Clinical training programs commencing January 2025

The School of Veterinary Medicine, Murdoch University has vacancies in the following programs commencing in January 2025.

12-month discipline-specific traineeships

Emergency and critical care

The 12-month postgraduate trainee program is a year‐long, advanced clinical training program in the School of Veterinary Medicine at Murdoch University in Western Australia. The training program offers clinical experience in specific disciplines and an opportunity to gain formal scholarly training through concurrent enrolment in a graduate program. These positions would suit a recent graduate veterinarian interested in further university training and upskilling in areas that would be relevant to general practice, or a steppingstone to further clinical training such as a residency. Exceptional new graduates will be considered. An annual stipend of $40k is offered with concurrent enrolment in the graduate program which results in award of a Graduate Diploma in Veterinary Clinical Studies after completion of 2 semesters. Applicants must be able to start the program in early to mid-January for a Semester 1, 2025 enrolment.

Please click here to see photos!

Application for clinical training positions is restricted to veterinarians with a degree that can be registered in Western Australia. Australian and New Zealand citizenship or Australian permanent residency status is required for eligibility for full tuition-fee support. Successful applicants who do not meet citizenship or residency criteria are responsible for International Student Tuition Fees beyond domestic fee support.

All enquiries around the program can be forwarded to Dr Robert Shiel by email robert.shiel@murdoch.edu.au

Applications close Monday January 6th. (Early applications/EOI’s are encouraged)

A letter of intent, current CV, certified copy of academic transcripts, names of 3 referees, and a certified copy of passport/visa as proof of Australian Citizenship or Permanent Residency, or of New Zealand citizenship, should be submitted to (jody.reeve@murdoch.edu.au). Candidates are chosen after a competitive selection process.

Murdoch University values workplace diversity, promotes inclusion, and strongly encourages applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, women, and individuals with disability. Applicants who have support or access requirements, are encouraged to advise this at the time of their application, to ensure appropriate assistance is provided throughout the recruitment process.

Southpaws Specialty, Emergency and Referral Hospital

Rotating Internship – Starts January 2025

Southpaws is one of Australia's best-known Veterinary Specialist and Emergency hospital groups, with an aim to be the first choice for expert veterinary care, why? Because our pets are our family.

Our internships have been the launchpad for numerous residency and specialist pathways.
The Rotating Internship is not only the opportunity to gain valuable insight, experience, knowledge and new skills as a clinician, but it can also be an essential first step on a journey to specialisation.

The Role

Whether you have experience in general practice or not, rotating internships are designed to give you exposure to a specialist veterinary environment as well as the hustle of 24 hour emergency, develop your skills and knowledge, and gain exposure to the different specialisations that you may want to pursue at the end of the program.

Southpaws see the internship program as a mutual responsibility and are committed to providing all the support and training that you need to progress in your career.

The Detail

Southpaws is home to an esteemed Surgical Department recognised globally for its expertise and comprehensive caseload in Melbourne. Our surgical team is distinguished not only for its excellence in theaters but also for its significant contributions to medical education and training, both domestically and internationally. We specialise in a range of complex procedures including advanced soft tissue, neurologic, oncologic, and orthopaedic surgeries. Our capabilities encompass Total Hip Replacement and joint resurfacing, laparoscopic interventions, fluoroscopy-guided fracture repair, and transvenous coil embolisation for Porto-systemic shunts.

Supporting our Surgical and Emergency Departments are board certified anaesthetists providing continuous coverage throughout the week across our various locations. Their expertise ensures optimal care for our patients through individualised anaesthestic protocols and ultrasound guided loco-regional anaesthesia for most surgeries.

As a rotating intern you will have the opportunity to work in our busy 24/7 emergency department allowing you hands-on experience in triage, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of emergencies in small animals. You will work alongside an experienced and supportive team of vets and nurses who will help you develop your technical skills and foster your growth as a veterinary professional in a fast-paced environment.

Alongside technical skills emergency medicine teaches adaptability, flexibility and allows you to make meaningful impacts in the lives of animals and their families in times of crisis.

Preparation of surgical reports relating to procedures that the intern has been involved in as the assistant surge
Thorough examination, assessment and care of any hospitalised surgery patients (including cooperation with the surgery nurse in performing any ancillary tasks)
Preparation of daily inpatient records for hospitalised surgery patients
Timely and comprehensive reporting to the specialists on the condition of their inpatients.
Communication with clients and referring veterinarians on behalf of the surgeons when requested.
The surgical intern is not required to contribute to the on-call roster although there is the potential for the intern to participate in rostered in-patient care on Saturday mornings.
Participation in, and contribution to, weekly surgery rounds/journal club sessions

Qualifications

Candidates must be eligible for veterinary registration in Victoria and have excellent communication skills and work ethic, as well as a strong knowledge base on which to build
Clinical experience is desirable but not essential
This position is suited to a highly motivated vet seeking to further their skills and knowledge in Small Animal Surgery
Team coherence is extremely important to us and above all, we value someone who is a team player and an active learner

What We Offer

Mentorship and Guidance: Our team of skilled surgeons, vets and nurses will provide mentorship and guidance throughout your internship, ensuring your professional development and continued success. Interns interested in pursuing specialisation will be encouraged to seek residency training following the completion of the internship, and will be assisted in such training opportunities, whether it be internally or externally.
