Are there good job opportunities in New Zealand for my field for a MBBS/Master's?
Yes, New Zealand has strong job opportunities for medical science graduates. The healthcare sector is growing, with high demand for roles like Medical Laboratory Scientist, Clinical Research Associate, Biomedical Researcher, Public Health Specialist, and Laboratory Manager.
With your MBBS and a Master's in Medical Science, you are well-qualified for these positions. Gaining practical experience through internships or part-time work during your studies can further boost your employability.
Professional registration with the Medical Sciences Council of New Zealand is essential for practicing. New Zealand’s Post Study Work Visa (PSW) currently allows you to work for up to three years after a Master's, giving you valuable local experience and improving your chances for permanent residency.
