2 years Full time
This program is especially designed to prepare students to complete a full Bachelor of Biomedical Science in just two years and develop knowledge and skills to sit the Graduate Medical School Admissions Test (GAMSAT).
In this program, students gain a comprehensive understanding of how the human body works and what happens when diseases, infections and clinical disorders occur. They’ll study foundations in medical science and bioscience, cell and molecular biology, chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, health science research methods and communication. Later, develop knowledge in advanced physiology and pathophysiology, biochemistry, medical microbiology, medical genetics, immunology and pharmacology. There are opportunities to develop professional skills through clinical work placement and research projects in hospitals, clinical trial centres, pharmaceutical companies and medical research institutes. They’ll also gain skills for working in applied biomedical industries and medical research.
