Highlights

• Complete a Bachelor of Biomedical Science and Master in Data Analytics in four years.
• Obtain theoretical and practical skills in a range of biomedical disciplines including genomics, molecular biology, virology, microbiology, immunology, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology.
• Obtain significant project-based experience and develop high-order thinking strategies that allow you to apply data analytical skills to solve complex problems in biomedical research and healthcare.
• Graduate with two complementary skill sets that will enable an understanding of disease processes and modelling of diseases progression to ensure that you will be in demand and employable across Australia and internationally.

As a graduate you will have significant project-based experience and developed high-order thinking strategies that allow you to apply data analytical skills to solve complex problems in biomedical research and healthcare.

Why choose this course?

The complexity of the human body, modern lifestyle diseases and emerging medical treatments call for graduates with diverse skill sets.

The application of bioinformatics, computer science and statistical modelling continues to have a major impact on research in the biomedical sciences.

The combination of these two separate but complementary study areas will be at the forefront of developments in our understanding of public health, the causes of disease and the development of new approaches to treatment.

Customise your degree

Undergraduate component

As a graduate of the Bachelor of Biomedical Science you will have a foundational knowledge of a wide range of biomedical discipline areas. This broad knowledge base will be used as the foundation for the development of theoretical and practical knowledge in specialised biomedical science discipline areas.

You will have a high degree of course flexibility with the option to select a major and two minor areas of study that align with your interests and prepare you for areas of emerging priority and employment.

The course has very large practical focus; you will be in the laboratory from week one and working on real biomedical and scientific problems throughout the course.

Our flexible course design means you can shape the biomedical science portion of the course to suit your interests and career aspirations. Choose your major area of study from the list below.

Human biochemistry

Study the structure, function and properties of biomolecules and the molecular machinery that regulates the everyday workings of healthy cells and tissues, the molecular basis of diseases, and how diagnostic technologies and treatment strategies impact on biochemical processes in the cellular context.

Human physiology

Knowledge about the human body and how its systems work to maintain our health is essential to understanding the basis of disease, diagnostic technologies, and treatments. Design and undertake a laboratory-based research project in human physiology.

Infection and immunity

Develop knowledge and understanding of infectious disease agents (bacteria, viruses, yeasts, fungi, and parasites) and how they cause human disease, together with cutting-edge strategies of diagnosis, treatment, control, and prevention.

Postgraduate component

The application of bioinformatics, computer science and statistical modelling continues to have a major impact in the biomedical sciences.
