Program focus

The aim of this program is to provide previous graduates from the life sciences with a highly multidisciplinary and advanced education in cellular, microbiological, physiological and molecular biology technology.

Program aims

This program aims to provide Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Biomedical Science (or equivalent) graduates with advanced formal instruction to enhance their theoretical and practical skills in specified areas of biomedical science. Candidates will also undertake training in investigative techniques. The program will provide a sound basis for candidates wishing to undertake further advanced research studies, as well as preparing them for scientific research and/or educational roles within the biomedical laboratory sciences.

Program objectives

On completion of the program graduates will be able to:

• perform scholarly enquiry into issues that affect biomedical sciences

• demonstrate an advanced understanding of the principles underlying specified disciplines in biomedical science

• apply these principles to problem-solving

• interact with professionals trained in other disciplines towards the solution of common problems in biomedical science

• demonstrate skills in drawing upon the growing content of knowledge in these disciplines

• demonstrate advanced competency in laboratory techniques and the use of instrumentation relevant to the biomedical sciences

• prepare concise, accurate reports of experimental work

• access appropriate scientific literature and understand and apply the results of scientific research at a level appropriate to a new graduate

• demonstrate skills in the communication of ideas and concepts.

Admission requirements

To be considered for entry, applicants must be graduates holding a minimum of a three-year Bachelor of Biomedical Science or Bachelor of Science degree in an appropriate area of study from an Australian university with a GPA of 5.0 or equivalent. USQ graduates from the Bachelor of Biomedical Science should consult the Program Coordinator as some variation to the Recommended Enrolment Pattern may be required.
