The nature of the general practice departments in the medical schools of Australian and New Zealand universities, and the role of general practice conducted by these departments, are discussed. A number of arguments for, and against, the establishment of university general practice units, and comments on these, are listed. A greater involvement in the general practice and primary care units by the university departments over the next decade is predicted.
