Abstract:
The education of traditional Chinese medicine appeared in the 1990s in Australia and has been under the supervision of Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) since 2011.Six institutions,including three comprehensive universities—University of Technology Sydney,Western Sydney University and Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University,have set up programs and offered the bachelor and the master of traditional Chinese medicine so far.This paper chiefly introduced and analyzed the current education status,size and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine of the three universities with the provision of a reference for the international development and cooperation in traditional Chinese medical education with high quality.
