Understand the science behind medicine
UC’s Bachelor of Medical Science provides you with the foundational understanding of the science that underpins medicine, human health, disease and general well-being. Unlock your career ambitions and gain the comprehensive knowledge and skills that enable you to understand the unique interactions between cellular, chemical and biological sciences.
Engaging with the revitalised curriculum that builds upon science as a core major, study key areas like chemistry and biology at the molecular, cellular, organ and whole organism level while engaging in research projects or work integrated learning.
With a strong emphasis on professional skills and an integrated group work approach, you will examine contemporary issues in health and disease in the latter half of the degree.
In addition to the core science major, you’ll also complete two specialist majors, the Pathological Basis of Disease and the Genetic Basis of Disease. This will allow you to develop the in-depth skills required to navigate the ever-changing and fast-paced medical science industry.
