Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery/ Bachelor of Laws


General information

Course abbreviation: MB BS/LLB + Course code: 1074 + Clayton on-campus study only
Monash is the only university in Australia which offers this joint degree. It is designed to be completed in seven years within the present six-year medicine course. The combined program is a recognition by the faculties of Medicine and Law that the burgeoning area of medical law requires a pool of graduates with an academic grounding in both professions.
It is anticipated that a small number of students admitted into the new five-year medicine course will be able to apply for a place in the combined degree in early 2002. The structure and length of the combined course is currently under review.
