About the course

This major combines a range of medical science subjects with extended learning in chemistry and pharmacology. Students gain a broad understanding of the human body and the impacts of drugs on bodily systems via subjects in anatomy and physiology, building the skills and confidence to work in clinical and medical science environments. An Indigenous health subject prepares them to work with and for Australia’s First Nations people, while a third-year capstone project helps them build highly effective science communication skills.

　　The name of this major says it all: graduates emerge ready to pursue a wealth of career options in the booming pharmaceutical sector. They can develop or formulate pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and other products, become pharmaceutical researchers or biotechnologists, work in sales or marketing of pharmaceutical products, or apply their expertise to a range of regulatory, quality assurance or quality control roles.
