University of Otago Dunedin School of Medicine

Opened in 1875, the Otago Medical School initially taught a two-year course with training completed overseas.

[citation needed] From 1924, students could complete their last year of training at hospitals in either Auckland, Christchurch, or Wellington, as well as Dunedin.

The Bioethics Centre is housed in 71 Frederick St. Near the heart of the Dunedin School of Medicine, located alongside the Hercus and Adams buildings, are the Scott and Lindo Ferguson Buildings, both listed by Heritage New Zealand as Category II and Category I respectively.

The Scott Building,[5] built during the First World War by the architectural firm of Mason and Wales, is now used by the School of Biomedical Sciences.

The imposing Lindo Ferguson Building[6] is an Oamaru Stone and brick structure in classical styling built in 1927 to a design by Edmund Anscombe, also used by the School of Biomedical Sciences.
