WELCOME TO CLUB RHINO
(Rural Health in Northern Outback)

RHINO
is the student rural health club of James Cook University in Townsville, North Queensland. RHINO was founded in August 2000 and our aims are to promote rural health issues and opportunities within the health disciplines of the university, like medicine, dentistry, nursing, pharmacy, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech pathology and many more. RHINO provides many rewarding activities for its members, that are both fun and educational.

These include trips away to rural locations around North Queensland, guest speakers from around Australia and the world, skills nights, social events, conference attendance and heaps more!
