Counter-Terrorism and Operational Medicine

In situations involving acute trauma and prolonged field care, such as natural disasters and scenes of aggression and violence, the ability to operate appropriately can be a matter of life and death for more than those injured. CQU’s unique postgraduate courses in Counter-Terrorism and Operational Medicine (formerly Tactical Medicine) provide first responders, nurses, doctors and professionals similarly exposed to trauma medicine with a strong theoretical background and practical skills to successfully operate and manage patients within hostile and austere environments, such as intentional mass violence and mass casualty events. Learn how to assess, plan, prepare and implement strategies for successful operations and patient management in these unique environments and ensure you’re ready to respond.
