About Us
Murdoch's veterinary degree is globally accredited by the Australasian Veterinary Boards Council, the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, and the American Veterinary Medical Association.
Murdoch's veterinary degree was also the first in Australia to receive accreditation from the AVMA.
Since 2014, Murdoch University has offered a five-year veterinary degree program, comprising an integrated Bachelor of Science (Veterinary Biology) and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM).
The introduction of the DVM has enhanced opportunities to combine hands-on clinical training, veterinary professional life skills, research experience, and species-group electives across the DVM program.
The School is well resourced with research and teaching facilities, a student skills hub, an anatomy museum, a large veterinary teaching hospital, and a working farm, all located on the Perth campus.
Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging is a key discipline within the School of Veterinary Medicine, supporting a busy and active surgery and diagnostic (including referral) caseload.
It is also a core subject within the DVM.
The discipline contributes to research in diagnostic imaging and supports a referral service externally to the community of Western Australia.
The Role
A Senior Lecturer is expected to have developed a strong clinical specialist focus, evidenced by specialist college accreditation status and clinical discipline publications.
This position makes a significant contribution to the teaching effort of the School through the preparation and delivery of lectures and tutorials, program coordination, and supervision of Honours and postgraduate students.

An Associate Professor position with the Clinical Practice Professional Scholar track is expected to have a record of academic excellence with high-quality research that has national and/or international impact.
A commitment and capacity to attract external research funding is also expected.
An Associate Professor makes a considerable contribution to the University's postgraduate supervision and is expected to play a leadership role in University administration.
