Resolutions of the Senate Sydney Medical School
The faculties of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing and Midwifery, and Pharmacy are now schools within the Faculty of Medicine and Health.
Current courses and units of study offered through the schools will continue as the University transitions to the new faculty.
Existing faculty resolutions, including award course resolutions transfer to the new faculty. The University of Sydney (Governance of Faculties and University Schools) Rule 2016 (289KB PDF) covers the management and governance framework for the new faculty.
Any future changes to academic programs offered will be developed and approved through the University’s normal mechanisms involving the faculty, the Academic Board and the University Senate.
