<P> The latest version of the AQF includes the new category of Level 9 Master's degrees (Extended) which permits the use of the term' Doctor' in the styling of the degree title of relevant professional programs . As a result, various Australian medical schools have replaced their MBBS degrees with the MD to resolve the previous anomalous nomenclature . With the introduction of the Master's level MD, universities have also renamed their previous medical research doctorates . The University of Melbourne was the first to introduce the MD in 2011 as a basic medical degree, and has renamed its research degree to Doctor of Medical Science (DMedSc). </P> <P> Current Australian medical schools and their basic qualifying medical degrees are listed below: </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> University </Th> <Th> Current Degree (s) </Th> <Th> Duration </Th> <Th> AQF level </Th> <Th> Entry </Th> <Th> Previous Degree (s) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Adelaide </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> <Td> 6 years </Td> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Australian National University </Td> <Td> MChD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Bond University </Td> <Td> BMedSt / MD </Td> <Td> 4.6 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Deakin University </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> BMBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Flinders University </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> BMBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Griffith University </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> James Cook University </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> <Td> 6 years </Td> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Melbourne </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> BMedSc / MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Monash University </Td> <Td> BMedSci / MD </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> MBBS, MBBS (Hons) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Newcastle </Td> <Td> BMedSc / MD </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> BMed </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of New England </Td> <Td> BMedSc / MD </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> BMed </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of New South Wales </Td> <Td> BMed / MD </Td> <Td> 6 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Notre Dame Australia </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Queensland </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Sydney </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Tasmania </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Western Australia </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Western Sydney University </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> University of Wollongong </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Curtin University </Td> <Td> MBBS </Td> <Td> 5 years </Td> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Undergraduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Macquarie University </Td> <Td> MD </Td> <Td> 4 years </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Graduate </Td> <Td> N / A </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> University </Th> <Th> Current Degree (s) </Th> <Th> Duration </Th> <Th> AQF level </Th> <Th> Entry </Th> <Th> Previous Degree (s) </Th> </Tr>
