Post graduation opportunities in Taiwan
Clinical Work Opportunity in Taiwan
There will be opportunities for further post-graduate clinical work at China Medical University Hospital in Taiwan, working alongside some of the most experienced and influential practitioners of Chinese medicine in a busy hospital setting.
Although the hospital has developed a strong research base and employs modern methods of diagnosis, the approach to treatment is chiefly centred around classical methods and with an emphasis on the shang han lun and wen bing theories on the treatment of disease. This combination of an evidence based approach coupled with the wisdom of classical teachings has established CMU as one of the world’s leading hospitals specialising in integrative medicine.
It’s not all hard work…
While the lectures and clinical observation form a core part of the Taiwan trip we also want students to get a feel for the culture surrounding the practice of Chinese medicine in Taiwan.
You will get an opportunity to visit the Chinese Medicine Museum and learn about the history of the medicine we practice.

A trip to the renowned Sun Ten factory is a fantastic way to learn about herbal medicine supply chains and how to ensure the herbs you prescribe are of the utmost quality. Students will see how herbs are sourced, processed and manufactured into finished products and how quality is controlled through organoleptic and analytical methods.
Explore Taiwan
Students will also be taken on excursions around beautiful Taiwan, from the famous (and delicious) night markets of Taipei to the stark beauty of Taroko gorge and the beautiful coastline of Hualien, as well as the Taiwan Botanical Gardens, Sun and Moon Lake, The Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Taiwan National Museum. Activities that are available to students during their stay include Chinese language classes, calligraphy classes, Tai Chi and Qigong.
