Health studies can lead to a wide range of careers – as a doctor, nurse, midwife, dentist or surgeon, or in specialised therapies such as osteopathy and physiotherapy. And you're not limited to helping sick people either – a veterinary college teaches you to look after sick animals of all shapes and sizes.

Medical schools only take students of the highest academic standard; the study program is challenging and the hours are long. Whether you choose a medical university, nursing college or veterinary college, make sure your course is regulated by the local medical authority. This ensures your medical or nursing degree will be recognised internationally, and you can practice medicine anywhere in the world.

If you want to work in alternative therapies, you can study at diploma level. But to be a doctor, dentist, surgeon or nurse you need an undergraduate degree and post-graduate research may be important as well.

You can study medicine around the world. In the US most students gain a pre-med undergraduate degree first, and then go to medical school. In the UK the numbers of international students they can admit to medical university are limited by the government. In Australia you can sometimes combine your medicine degree with other studies for a joint degree.

Look for a medical college or nursing college with a good reputation for research in modern medicine. You will usually combine your academic study with clinical experience, or an internship in a hospital, vet clinic or doctors practice.

No matter where you go, it's worth taking specialised English language study before you start your medical degree, to help you learn and understand the terminology.

Some health university courses can be studied by distance learning, so you can combine your studies with work and family commitments. In some countries you can also study a joint degree, such as medicine/engineering or medicine/business.

Entry requirements vary depending on the type of medical degree, but all international applicants from non-English speaking countries will need to prove a certain level of English language ability.
