Course summary

Medical and health science provides insight into the structure and function of the human body at all levels of organisation. This knowledge can be used directly to work alongside other health professionals within the medical research and clinical health fields in both private industry and hospital settings. It can also be used as an underpinning set of knowledge for postgraduate medicine, dentistry, and most other allied health professional areas. It is the Medical and Health professionals in their various roles that are involved in the development of therapies, application of diagnostic methods and treatments associated with health and disease.

A flexible, yet rigorous degree, the Bachelor of Medical and Health Sciences is designed specifically for students who wish to study the scientific basis of human structure, function, and health. We can help you build the degree that’s right for you by providing career advice and guiding you through your study options to ensure you reach your career goals.

By integrating technology throughout this degree, we ensure that you graduate equipped to excel in a constantly changing and technologically advanced world. On completion, high-performing students considering further study or a career in research should consider the honours program in medical and health sciences.
