Three Rivers University Department of Rural Health (UDRH) is funded by the Australian Government under the Rural Health Mutlidisciplinary Training (RHMT) Program. 

Our research activity is guided by the RHMT Program's five strategic research areas:

1. Rural health workforce development (including increasing rural-origin and Indigenous students studying health professions courses, and workforce recruitment and retention strategies)
2. Rural training strategies
3. Innovative rural service delivery models to enable the provision of health services to meet community needs
4. Health issues directly impacting on rural people, with a focus on benefiting communities within the University’s catchment area through the delivery of better health services
5. Improving the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

This research group details our research activities and output achieved as part of our RHMT Program funding. For a more comprehensive list of our staff's work, visit our organisation page, Three Rivers University Department of Rural Health
