Foundation Studies Program (2 Trimesters), Leading to Bachelor of Laws / Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Science

Program Overview

Foundation Studies prepares you for a successful transition to degree-level study, providing a pathway to the first year of study of a bachelor’s degree at Murdoch University.

This course is suited to you if you:

  • Need an entrance qualification for Murdoch University
  • Want to accelerate your university preparation after Year 11, or equivalent
  • Want to change your degree stream after Year 11, or equivalent

Course Structure
For Foundation Studies you will complete eight units over two study periods, studying a combination of core and elective units. The units you will undertake will be determined by your chosen degree. All students must complete the two English units and at least one unit from each Discipline Group.

Each unit of study builds concepts from an introductory level through to university entrance level. The units are designed to develop your learning techniques as well as bridging gaps in your unit knowledge.

  • English
    • Essential Australian Studies
    • Introduction to Academic Communication
  • Mathematics
    • Introductory Mathematics
    • Mathematics for Science
  • Science and Technology
    • Information Technology for Academic Studies
    • Computer Science
    • Physics
    • Chemistry
    • Biology
  • The Arts
    • Introduction to Media
    • Media Production
  • Business and Legal Studies
    • Accounting
    • Management
    • Economics

Leading to: Bachelor of Laws / Bachelor of Science
As an example, if you combined the Bachelor of Laws with the Bachelor of Science in Forensic Biology and Toxicology, you would learn the most up-to-date techniques to gather, analyse and present scientific evidence, such as DNA profiling and drug metabolism, in a court of law.

If you’re more interested in environmental science and sustainability, you could combine the Bachelor of Laws with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science or Environmental Management and Sustainability. You would explore how to create a better environment for people while sustaining biodiversity and world resources and examine the relationships between air, land, water, plants, animals and people to address the challenges arising from our interactions with our environment.

If you want a future at the cutting edge of Law, combining your Bachelor of Laws with a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology will allow you to remain at the forefront of the industry and ahead of demands. You will gain an understanding for people and the impacts that technology has made to our lives and our culture, allowing you to future-proof your career.

Major: Biomedical Science
Prepare for your career by exploring a variety of disciplines including physiology, microbiology, immunology, cell biology, biochemistry and pathology. You’ll also have the opportunity to broaden your scope by including other areas of study such as anatomy, parasitology, haematology, histology and pharmacology depending on your area of interest.

With extensive hands-on practical classes from lecturers who are making a real-world impact with their research, you will learn both basic and specific laboratory techniques needed in the medical sciences.

At the end of the course you’ll get to integrate the cutting-edge applications you’ve learnt as well as be well informed about future career pathways in the capstone unit “Advances in Medical Science”.

3 reasons to study Biomedical Science at Murdoch

  • Study at the number 1 university in Western Australia for social equity and student:teacher ratio for undergraduate courses by the Good Universities Guide 2024.
  • Grow your industry connections via Murdoch’s own world-class Research Centres including the Food Futures Institute, Harry Butler Institute and Health Futures Institute.
  • If you’re aiming to study postgraduate medicine (or other medically-related vocations), you’ll be well prepared to apply when you finish this course.

What you’ll learn
Build the knowledge and skills you need to meet your career or study goals. Here are some of the things you’ll learn:

  • Cell biology (structure and function of cells)
  • Medical microbiology (bacteria, viruses and fungi that cause disease)
  • Medical immunology and molecular genetics (how the body defends itself against infection and how genetics is important in medical science)
  • Biomedical physiology (how body systems function)
  • Pathological basis of disease (causes and effects of diseases, including cancer).
