Bachelor of Science with Honors in Biomedical Science, a 3-year full-time program. This field focuses on studying disease mechanisms and their impact on bodily functions, with the goal of researching disease processes to create diagnostic, treatment, and prevention solutions. The curriculum emphasizes both scientific knowledge and the development of personal and professional skills. Graduates from this highly regarded program consistently secure prestigious careers and gain admission to top-tier graduate programs worldwide.
Full-time undergraduate students typically complete 120 credit points annually, equating to approximately 36-42 hours per week of combined lectures, labs, tutorials, independent study, and assessments. Part-time students follow a proportional workload, with each credit point representing 10 study hours. Master's programs generally require 180 credits over three semesters full-time, while Postgraduate Certificates (60 credits) often take one year part-time, and Postgraduate Diplomas (120 credits) typically require two years of part-time study.
