Note

Important advice for the Bachelor of Health Science: The University is moving to withdraw both the Environmental Health and Environmental Toxicology majors in order to reflect and realign with student demand for major preferences from recent years. While the university is in the process of withdrawing these majors, and it is envisaged that they will be withdrawn soon, they have not been removed from degree information at this point. However, given the intent to withdraw them, they can no longer be chosen as majors in the Bachelor of Health Science.

Combined diploma/degrees

Upon successful completion of this diploma, you will be offered guaranteed entry into the second year of the Bachelor of Health Science.
