How To Become A Radiographer In Australia

[@SallyOverShare]

I got lots of messages asking me how much does it *cost to study radiography in Australia* , so see my breakdown on university fee here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/in3FmYZ8a8eMmqM

Hi madam how may i move to Australia for job as radiographer

[@8ktv475]

I am the case where I have gained a Diploma from my country (VET) and I really don't know what to do! I am desperate! Now I am studying cert 3 in health at Tafe! I hope my dream to work as a radiographer comes true, and let's hope the degree that was awarded to me in 2018 will not "expired". Thank you for this video Sally! (If anyone knows something about my case please help, thanks)

Hi, Sally! I am about to finish my bachelor's degree in radiography in the Philippines and planning to have a postgraduate education in Sonography in Australia. Would I able to get a sonographer/radiographer license once I finish my master's degree in Sonography in Australia?

[@SallyOverShare]

No. You need to finish your master's degree AND *complete a certain number of clinical hours practicing your ultrasound skill*. As far as I'm aware of, most Aus universities provide the academic component of sonography, and it is the student's responsibility to *find somewhere to complete the clinical hours*. Please watch my other video on why it is hard to become a sonographer. All the best!

[@tranlenamphuong6192]

I have a question. What if my ATAR score isn’t enough. Can I take the pathway from Bachelor of Science to then Master is Applied Science?

[@SallyOverShare]

Yes, some people even transition to Radiography after 1 year of science. Or you can work your way to a master degree of Radiography. However, the first option is probably better because you should get more clinical experience in that case

[@Dreamoooon]

I got my diagnostic radiography degree from Usyd but I had to move back to Thailand. I plan to go back to Australia once I'm done with my contract here so I'm researching what I need to do. Since my degree is an Australian one, I think I don't have to sit the MRPBA exam, I'm still registered with AHPRA too (but it's a non-practising regis), so I probably don't have to worry much about that. The real question is; do I still need ASMIRT assessment if I want to go back to Aus and work as a radiographer there?

[@SallyOverShare]

I don't think you need the ASMIRT assessment for job interview, but you will most likely need it to apply for a working visa. It is an expensive one-off expense.

[@mvvvvv1298]

Hi Sally, very informative. As an international student, do you do the MRBPA exam after you get the 189 visa or is that done before you apply for visa?

[@SallyOverShare]

if you're an international student studying reafforestation in Australia, you don't need to sit for the MRPBA exam.

[@mvvvvv1298]

I'm glad you found my video helpful, but tbh you have prepared well for the move! Since I studied in Australia, I don't think there is much ASMIRT need to check in order to approve my skill assessment, so I received it in less than 2 months after I passed my university requirement.

A master degree should meet the requirement for you to become a radiographer, however, always check with the university. Sometimes, you may have to be responsible for meet the clinical hour requirement, AHPRA sets up the minimum clinical hours you must do during university time in order to register as a radiorapher.
