Bachelor of Biomedical Science

Program Overview

Biomedical science helps society through applying new scientific knowledge to medicine and healthcare. In this degree, you will gain an understanding of health and the methods for diagnosing and treating disease.

If you study this degree on the Gold Coast campus, you'll have a health focus. If you wish to study at the South Brisbane campus (Nathan), you'll have a science focus and need to apply for the Bachelor of Biomedical Science (1031).

In your first year, you will be introduced to the basic sciences underpinning biomedical science. In your second and third years, you will explore more advanced aspects of the biomedical and clinical sciences, including genetics, biochemistry, cell biology, anatomy, physiology, immunology, microbiology, infectious disease, pharmacology and neuroscience.

You will learn through laboratory-based training in the biomedical sciences in cutting-edge facilities, with simulated teaching environments and virtual reality technology.

In addition to learning about the methods for researching, diagnosing and treating disease, you'll learn how humans work at every level, from our cells to the whole of our bodies. If you intend to apply for the Doctor of Medicine (5099), this degree provides excellent foundational knowledge to support your application, as well as a solid foundation for a career in biomedical research.

You'll develop knowledge and skills in clinical and biological sciences, and understand how they can be applied to medicine, biomedical research and other healthcare professions. This degree also provides opportunities for you to articulate into Masters degrees in health professions.
