2 years Full time
This program is especially designed to prepare students for postgraduate studies in medicine. Students will complete a full bachelor degree in just two years, including specialist courses in Medical Science, developing knowledge and skills they need to successfully sit the Graduate Medical School Admissions Test (GAMSAT).
In this program students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the human body, and what happens when diseases, infections and clinical disorders occur. They’ll study cell biology, biogenetics, chemistry, human physiology and anatomy, science research methods, and communication. They will develop practical skills through projects and placements with hospitals, clinical trial centres, pharmaceutical companies and research institutes. They’ll also develop knowledge and skills to work in applied biomedical industries and medical research.
