HCNUR6041 CONTEMPORARY ISSUES IN GLOBAL HEALTH
This course explores the nature of contemporary health both globally and within Australia, and the roles and practices of nurses within the health workforce. Health is examined from the determinants perspective and burden of disease in Australia is seen as underpinning the policy and resource situation. The complexities and consequences of chronic illnesses are a particular focus, laying groundwork for the specialty courses in the course. Patients are seen as having shifted from passive recipients of care to critical consumers. Nurses are seen as occupying new and expanded roles supported by evidence-based reflective practice.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $578
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $578
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
