Bachelor of Science in Laboratory Medicine

Program Overview

In this course, you will learn about the pathology of disease – its origin, nature and course – and diagnosis. In your first year, you’ll study interprofessional course units with students from other disciplines. In your second year, you’ll learn the cellular and tissue aspects of pathology and the various disciplines of laboratory medicine.

In your third and fourth years, you’ll focus on three of these disciplines: anatomical pathology, haematology and transfusion science, clinical biochemistry, immunology, medical microbiology.

You’ll also gain extensive practical experience in Curtin’s purpose-built Physical Containment Level 2 Laboratory. Here, you’ll process and analyse clinical samples, identify microbes and report results as done by a professional laboratory.

You’ll further develop your practical skills during a 24-week placement in a diagnostic pathology laboratory.
