The University of Sydney offers a comprehensive range of services, including academic assistance, child care, health care, counselling, careers advice and facilities for students with disabilities. For detailed information about study and living costs please see: sydney.edu.au/future_students
As an international student on a budget, you will be reassured to hear that living costs in Sydney compare favourably with costs in other Australian state capitals. In fact, increased competition among goods and service providers here means that prices for many items, such as food, clothing, child care and medical costs can actually be cheaper than in smaller cities. In addition, Sydney enjoys a mild climate most of the year, which means you will spend less on heating or air-conditioning compared to students living in cooler or hotter cities. Living costs can be greatly reduced by sharing accommodation and meals, living further away from the campus, and shopping carefully at the wide range of markets and discount shops that Sydney has to offer. (See page 6 for more information about accommodation costs.) Textbooks and equipment Textbooks cost between A$200 and A$600 per year, depending on your course. You can save money buying them second-hand. The Students Representative Council (SRC) runs a second-hand bookshop on campus. Some
courses also require special equipment. For example, if you study health sciences or nursing you may need to buy clinical uniforms. Dentistry and veterinary science students may need to buy specialised tools or equipment. Health insurance The Australian government requires all international students and their families (if living here) to pay for health insurance through the Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) scheme. The Universitys preferred provider is OSHC Worldcare. Upon receipt of your first payment of tuitition fees and the OSHC premium, the International Office will pay the compulsory health cover fee to OSHC Worldcare on your behalf, for the duration of your course of study. OSHC provides free access to the Universitys health service and public hospitals. Higher-level coverage, such as access to private hospitals, is your responsibility. Waiting periods may apply. OSHC also offers family packages. sydney.edu.au/ug-int-health

australian scholarship students If you have an Australian government scholarship, your health insurance cover will be paid directly to OSHC Worldcare. education expenses for students children If a member of your family is school age (5 to 18 years of age), and will be living with you in Australia for more than three months, they will be expected to attend school in Australia. School attendance is not free of charge unless you are enrolling in a PhD (conditions apply). The 12-month fee for primary to junior high school years (Kindergarten to Year 10) is A$4500. For senior high school (Years 11 and 12) the fee is A$5500. You must pay these fees 12 months in advance, together with a non-refundable administration fee of A$110 for each child enrolled. These figures are subject to change. For more information please see: www.schools.nsw.edu.au/international

All prices quoted in the table are approximate examples and a guide only. Prices will vary depending on the location/size of flat and lifestyle of each individual person. All amounts are in Australian dollars (A$) and include the Goods and Services Tax (GST) in most of the prices above. GST is not refundable. The University of Sydney tuition fees are not included on the table above. For information regarding fees go to page 142. Students should budget for a 5% increase in living expenses each year.

POPulaTION Oral HealTH If youre wishing to pursue a program in Population Oral Health, begin by completing the Master of Public Health (MPH, page 78) or the Master of International Public Health degree programs (MIPH, page 77). You must include in your program the three dental elective units of study: Preventative Dentistry, Population Oral Health, and Dental Health Services. Upon successful completion of the MPH or MIPH, you may then be able to proceed to undertake research studies. For more information please visit: sydney.edu.au/dentistry/student/postgrad.php deNTISTrY (graduaTe eNTrY) The Doctor of Dental Medicine is a graduate-entry program, delivered at a postgraduate level and assuming sufficient academic maturity at entry to take responsibility with regards to learning and to engage in supervised clinical ie patientbased treatment early on in the course. The course is underpinned by a defined research component to support an inquiring approach. Together with quantitatively and qualitatively greater clinical experience, this will equip graduates to adapt to changing demands in health care delivery and to practise as ethical and accomplished dental practitioners in the 21st century. Through increased community exposure and experience, you will be capable of accepting additional roles and responsibilities as ambassadors, community educators or promoters of health at community level. The course will be delivered in a blended mode, with a decrease in face-to-face lectures and the introduction of more frequent tutored sessions during which students will be confronted with problems, clinical cases and treatment criteria with the aim of stimulating critical reasoning/evaluation skills. Medical and health components will be delivered in the dental context, with science-based prerequisites (waived for 2012) to facilitate learning in this regard. The development of leadership skills distinguish graduates of the Doctor of Dental Medicine. Together with an enhanced sense of social responsibility, professional and ethical values, you will contribute to the dental profession, academia and public health service and assume a leading role in the establishment and promotion of cultural awareness and safety. doctor of dental Medicine (graduate entry) cOurSe EC082 crIcOS 074120B acadeMIc req: Bachelor degree plus either GAMSAT, MCAT, CDAT or DAT plus interview.

clINIcal ePIdeMIOlOgY Clinical Epidemiology is the science of applying the best available research evidence to patient care. This course is intended to provide the opportunity to learn the principles of clinical epidemiology and best evidence and is designed to ensure that the theory learned by participants is applied to patient-based examples and readily integrated into their dayto-day work. The course covers many areas of study. Core subjects are epidemiology methods and uses, and introductory biostatistics, with a range of electives in areas including evaluation of diagnostic tests, controlled trials, systematic reviews, development of clinical epidemiological research and patient-based measures. The course is aimed at health professionals who are interested in clinical epidemiology and is particularly suited to those who are currently involved in or wish to become involved in their own clinical research.
