The Bachelor of Biomedical Science is completed over 3 years of full-time study at Burwood (Melbourne) or Waurn Ponds (Geelong), with March and July intakes. Core units progress through levels one to three; choose a major sequence and optional electives. Expand each section for indicative units.
Level 1 Trimester 1 establishes foundational science skills, laboratory safety, and core biology and chemistry. You will study cells and genes, essential science skills, and introductory chemistry, building the academic and practical competencies expected in Deakin’s biomedical science program. You will develop laboratory skills, scientific literacy, and research methods through practical sessions and assessments that prepare you for biomedical research, pharmaceutical, and healthcare careers in Australia and internationally.
Level 1 Trimester 2 extends your science foundation with professional chemistry, biology form and function, and physics for the life sciences. You will apply quantitative and biological concepts to human health contexts, preparing for intermediate biochemistry and physiology units in year two. You will develop laboratory skills, scientific literacy, and research methods through practical sessions and assessments that prepare you for biomedical research, pharmaceutical, and healthcare careers in Australia and internationally.
Level 2 Trimester 1 develops biochemistry, research methods, and microbiology. You will learn to analyse biological data, understand molecular processes, and study microorganisms relevant to infection, immunity, and biomedical research pathways. You will develop laboratory skills, scientific literacy, and research methods through practical sessions and assessments that prepare you for biomedical research, pharmaceutical, and healthcare careers in Australia and internationally.
Level 2 Trimester 2 covers genetics, genomics, and systems physiology. You will explore how genes and organ systems function in health and disease, building knowledge essential for advanced biomedical science and major specialisation units in year three. You will develop laboratory skills, scientific literacy, and research methods through practical sessions and assessments that prepare you for biomedical research, pharmaceutical, and healthcare careers in Australia and internationally.
Level 3 Trimester 1 applies biomedical science to real-world health and research contexts. You will integrate prior learning in applications of biomedical science, connecting laboratory skills to diagnosis, treatment, and industry placement opportunities.
