Other Course RequirementsWork Experience ProgramThis course includes a mandatorySummer Program between years two andthree of the full-time course. During theSummer Program you will be required toundertake a minimum six-week workexperience program in a practisingpathology laboratory. Proof of successfulvaccination against Hepatitis B must beprovided at the end of first semester ofthe second year of the course.

Blue CardA current blue card authorised with QUTmay be required prior to commencing theclinical placement components of thiscourse. Ensure that you allow adequatetime for processing your application andissuing of the card in order to avoidclinical experience delays.

International CoursestructureYour courseYear 1The Bachelor of Applied Science (MedicalScience) commences with a solidgrounding in life sciences, mathematics,chemistry and physics. You will undertakefurther intensive study in humanphysiology, anatomy, cell and molecularbiology. With QUT's practical approach toteaching, you will not only learn thetheory, but gain a wealth of practicalexperience in QUT's state-of-the-artlaboratories.

Year 2You will proceed to the topics ofbiochemistry, microbiology and pathologybefore sampling various specialisationslike immunology, haematology andhistopathology. During practical classesyou will learn the latest techniques usedin the pathology industry and improveyour skills to professional standards. Atthe end of the year you will be ready toundertake a six-week placement in apathology laboratory to further developyour skills under the guidance ofprofessionals in the workplace.

Year 3The final year builds on the key areas ofbiochemistry, microbiology, immunology,haematology, histopathology andintroduces immunohaematology. You willdevelop your skills to an advanced leveland further refine your laboratorytechniques to ensure that, when yougraduate, you will be ready to operateconfidently in the workplace. You can takeadvantage of QUT's close links with thepathology industry to further enhanceyour employment prospects.

International CoursestructureYour CourseYear 1You will undertake units coveringchemistry, physics, anatomy, pathologyand cell biology, providing a solidknowledge base for the topics coveredlater in the course. With QUT's practicalapproach to teaching, you will not onlylearn the theory, but gain a wealth ofpractical experience in state-of-the-artlaboratories. You will also gain anintroduction to the essentialcommunication skills required for a careerin the health and medical professions.

Year 2You will have the option of choosing amajor and two minors from five keybiomedical scientific disciplines to alignwith your own career goals: anatomicalsciences, cell and molecular biology,human biochemistry, human physiologyand infectious diseases. You will have theopportunity to complement your studiesby choosing a university wide set from adiscipline outside of biomedical science,such as behavioural science, publichealth, human rights, entrepreneurship,mathematical sciences, internationalbusiness or study a language. A minor isalso available in Clinical Physiology whichincludes a 400 hour Clinical Physiologyinternship in which you will be placed in ahospital with professional clinicalphysiologists who will provide training inphysiological instrumentation andmeasurement, recording, interpretationand reporting of clinical data. You will alsohave opportunities to gain real worldexperience as part of your course in WorkIntegrated Learning placements inbiomedical research institutes andlaboratories in the science industry.

Year 3In the real world, the design andcompletion of successful research and/or






business projects demand that individualsgather information, solve problems, workeffectively as a part of a team andanalyse and communicate results in acritical manner. Therefore each major inthis course will culminate in a capstoneunit which will require you to apply theknowledge and skills developed throughyour course. Capstone projects includehuman anatomical dissection,contemporary laboratory based researchprojects in biochemistry, physiology andcell and molecular biology, and diagnosis,characterisation and development ofappropriate responses to an infectiousdisease outbreak scenario.

Course DesignThe Bachelor of Biomedical Sciencecomprises first-year studies in chemistry,physics, anatomy, pathology and cellbiology, providing a solid knowledge basefor the topics covered later in the course. Units in the second and third yearscombine advanced studies withtheoretical, practical, and problem-solvingskills. Several units in the area ofhumanities and applied health are anintegral part of the course.

The Bachelor of Biomedical Scienceprovides the necessary knowledge andskills to enter a career in biomedicalresearch, with integration of researchdesign and implementation, scientificwriting and communication and practicallaboratory skills embedded through eachyear of the course.

Furthermore students will be wellprepared to sit GAMSAT which isdesigned to evaluate mastery and use ofconcepts in basic science as well as theacquisition of more general skills inproblem solving, critical thinking andwriting. The Bachelor of BiomedicalScience provides a solid grounding inGAMSAT testing areas: reasoning inhumanities and social sciences, writtencommunication, reasoning in biologicaland physical sciences (includingchemistry, biology and physics).
