Units indexed by faculty Bachelor of Biomedical Science/Bachelor of EngineeringCourse code: 3879 + Course abbreviation: BBiomedSc/BE + Total credit points required: 240 + 5 years full-time, 10 years part-time + Managing faculty: Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences Study mode and course locationOn-campus (Clayton) Course descriptionThis double-degree program introduces students to a range of interdisciplinary units covering areas of modern biomedical sciences, human biology and public health and develops a strong grounding in one of five branches of engineering. The strong research and design focus that is characteristic of the engineering programs combined with the interdisciplinary approach of the biomedical science component produces graduates in two disciplines who are able to make a unique contribution to both medical science and engineering. Course structureStudents will be able to combine a Bachelor of Biomedical Science with a Bachelor of Engineering in one of five disciplines (chemical, civil, electrical and computer systems, materials or mechanical engineering) and position themselves for careers in the biomedical engineering field. Course requirementsBiomedical science componentStudents must complete the following biomedical science units:
