Bachelor of Biomedicine
Please refer to the University of Melbourne Handbook https://www.handbook.unimelb.edu.au as the definitive source of course information and requirements. What are the course requirements? To satisfy the requirements of the Bachelor of Biomedicine (BBiomed), you must complete a total of 300 points, comprising: 225 points of core (biomedical science/science discipline) subjects including: > At least 75 points at Level 1 including the compulsory subjects or approved equivalents. > At least 62.5 points at Level 2 including the compulsory subjects or approved equivalents. > At least 75 points at Level 3 including the compulsory subjects or approved equivalents and including the 50 points of a prescribed major. At least 50 points of Breadth subjects including a minimum of 12.5 points at Level 2 or 3. 25 points (biomedical science/science discipline subjects or breadth subjects) at Level 1, 2 or 3. Note: You can complete a maximum of 125 points at Level 1 You can complete a maximum of 37.5 points of breadth at Level 1 In first year, the foundation subjects in biology and chemistry focus on key biomolecules, fundamentals of cell biology, chemical processes in a biological context, basic genetics and the interactions between genes and environment that determine phenotype. These subjects are supported by studies in experimental design and data analysis, mathematics and physics. In second year, the compulsory core subjects include content from several biomedical science discipline areas to provide foundation knowledge that prepares you for the capstone and major subjects in third year, and enables you to meet prerequisite requirements of postgraduate and professional health science degrees. In semester 1, the focus is on molecular and cellular aspects of biomedicine with topics from molecular biology and biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, microbiology and immunology, and cellular pathology. In semester 2, the focus is on human structure and function with topics in gross anatomy, pharmacology and physiology. You can also select a total of 25 points as Selectives from subjects that are offered by the Faculty of Science, Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry & Health Sciences, Faculty of Veterinary Science, Melbourne School of Engineering and Melbourne School of Land & Environment. Normally these subjects are chosen to meet prerequisite requirements for a major. They can also include further study in other areas of science, such as chemistry or mathematics, and are subject to the prerequisites being met. In third year, two compulsory capstone subjects explore contemporary issues in biomedicine and develop links with professional practice. Depth in one specific biomedical science discipline is achieved by selecting 50 points at third-year level in an area of major study.

These subjects are taken instead of Mathematics for Biomedicine, Experimental Design & Data Analysis and Physics. Please note that even after completing these first year compulsory subjects for a Bioengineering Systems major, you can still decide to change your major if you change your mind. Do you intend to take the Health Informatics major? In your first year you must select: COMP10001 Foundations of Computing This subject is taken instead of Experimental Design & Data Analysis. Enrolment You will need to complete the administrative part of your enrolment and enrol into your subjects using the following link: http://enrolment.unimelb.edu.au Chris and Alice have created an online enrolment video to assist you with your enrolment: http://sc.mdhs.unimelb.edu.au/biomedicine-enrolment Class Registration To create your Semester 1 timetable you will need to register in classes.

What are Selectives? Selectives in the Bachelor of Biomedicine are science-based subjects (so, not Breadth) For further information on Selective subjects: http://go.unimelb.edu.au/8dpn We discuss Breadth in more detail on the next page. To remember: You must complete 300 points of study in order to complete your degree. 50 points must be taken as Breadth with a maximum of 37.5 points of Breadth at Level 1. There are an additional 25 points for you to use for either Breadth or Selective subjects. You can take up a maximum of ten Level 1 subjects throughout your entire degree. Please note the 25 credit point subjects in 2nd year - DOUBLE your usual subject load.
What is Breadth?
Try to learn something about everything and everything about something Thomas Huxley, English biologist 1825-1895 Breadth is an opportunity to learn about something youre interested in from outside the core disciplines of your degree. The aim of breadth is not only to encourage you to expand your academic horizons, but also to enable you to bring a broader range of skills to the workplace. Breadth will offer you the flexibility to take on the many challenges of a global work environment, as well as provide opportunities for increased personal development. By studying subjects distinct from the main fields of study in your degree, you have the chance to develop different skills, expand your knowledge, learn complementary ways of thinking about issues and problems, and challenge your perceptions. How should I choose Breadth subjects? Choose subjects you have always wanted to try. For example, languages (subject to placement test), cinema studies, creative writing, management, or world history. OR Choose subjects that provide skills and understanding to support you in science-oriented professions, the business world, education and everyday life: for example, bioethics, economics, communication, education, law, or sociology. Find your breadth subjects via the 2014 Handbook online Breadth search: http://go.unimelb.edu.au/tj7 Learn more about breadth study and your Bachelor of Biomedicine breadth options online at: http://go.unimelb.edu.au/4dpn Breadth rules for the Bachelor of Biomedicine You can take up to 75 points (six subjects) of Breadth study. You must complete a minimum of 50 points (four subjects) of Breadth study with a maximum of 37.5 points (three subjects) of Breadth at Level 1. Breadth Tracks A Breadth Track is a set of three or more subjects that progressively develops knowledge and skills relevant to some domain, theme, topic or issue. Many students choose to undertake at least one Breadth Track as part of their breadth studies. For more information: http://go.unimelb.edu.au/5dpn. Can I continue with my language or music studies? Concurrent Diplomas are taken in conjunction with your undergraduate degree. A concurrent diploma will usually add 50 to 100 points to your degree (1-2 semesters on top of your Bachelor of Biomedicine) and give you the opportunity to pursue subjects you love but which are outside your discipline. After enrolling into your Bachelor of Biomedicine you may choose to undertake a concurrent Diploma in Informatics, Languages, Mathematics, Music, or Global Issues.
Chancellors Scholars
As part of the Biomedicine Chancellors Scholars program you will be able to participate in specialist support programs delivered as part of Next Steps and involving teaching staff, research staff, and clinicians drawn from the Facultys five Graduate Schools and numerous academic departments. The more specialist and localised support programs will include opportunities for close connections with graduate disciplines through ongoing associations with academic mentors as well as interactions with graduate students enrolled in our suite of professional entry Masters degrees (Medicine/ Dental Surgery/ Physiotherapy) and research pathways including Honours. These Faculty-specific activities supplement the events offered across the range of Universitys Graduate Schools, and enable you to explore the broad range of graduate opportunities across the University. Ollie Xue Chancellors Scholar Bachelor of Biomedicine, third year student The mentor program has offered a chance to have friendly casual meetings with those in the medical field. My mentor, Doris Young, both a GP and an academic, gave a wider scope of a doctors practice beyond that of a clinician. Bridget Bishop Former Chancellors Scholar Current Graduate Student Mentor Doctor of Medicine student With three years of my Bachelor of Biomedicine degree behind me, as well as my extensive experience with the Biomedicine Students Society and other extra-curricular activities, I am always eager to share advice and experience with younger students. As a student mentor, I think I have been able to help my three Chancellors Scholar students in invaluable ways discussing everything from subject choices and future pathways, to how to maintain a social life.
