Bachelor of Science in Plant Sciences / Bachelor of Biomedical Science (Dual Degree)

Program Overview

Bachelor of Science and Biomedical Science is a double degree course providing comprehensive foundations in fundamental sciences complemented by specialist biomedical sciences. This course provides the knowledge and skills of the applied aspects of biomedical science and the more theoretical focus.

You will undertake research methodology training and carry out an independent research project in your specialist field, working closely with a supervisor who will provide you with individual guidance and academic counselling. The course offers a pathway to higher level research in biomedical science. There is a wide breadth of biomedical research available that provides a high degree of flexibility for you to pursue your honours year in a field of your choice.

Studies can be undertaken within one of the schools of the faculty, including: Biomedical Sciences, Central Clinical School, Eastern Health Clinical School, and Public Health and Preventative Medicine.  Studies can also be undertaken with one of the affiliated institutes, such as the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute or the Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute.


Major: Plant Sciences
Plant science is the study of plants, their diversity and structure, and how they function. It involves studying plants living on land, in the sea and in freshwater environments, from the scale of genes and molecules to ecology.

In this major you will investigate how plants function, how they obtain water and nutrients, and how they use energy from sunlight to produce carbohydrates by photosynthesis. You will also study how plants adapt to particular environments, and the factors that influence the distribution and diversity of plant species, and the plant communities in which they grow.

This is particularly important for understanding the impact of human activities – including global climate change – on plant communities, so that we can provide better management in the future.

In Plant sciences you will investigate how plants function and study the diversity of plant groups, from algae and mosses through to gymnosperms and angiosperms. In learning how plants are adapted to particular environments, you will study the exciting biology and ecology of terrestrial and aquatic plants and plant communities in their natural environment.
