COURSE CURRICULUM

The Bachelor of Pre-Medicine, Science and Health with a major in Medical Physiology is a three-year undergraduate program consisting of 144 credit points, designed to build a strong foundation for students aiming to pursue medicine or other health and biomedical science careers. The degree is structured so that students complete 48 credit points each year across first, second, and third year, allowing for steady academic development and progression in scientific knowledge and practical skills. In the first year, students are introduced to core subjects in human anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and foundational health sciences, which provide essential understanding of the human body and its basic functions. In the second year, students study more advanced topics such as pharmacology, pathology, medical ethics, and disease processes, while also strengthening laboratory, analytical, and research skills. In the third year, learning becomes more integrated and applied, focusing on complex physiological systems and preparing students for higher-level study or professional pathways in health sciences. A key component of the program is the Medical Physiology major (MAJ44299), which accounts for 54 credit points. This major provides in-depth study of human structure and function, covering cellular processes, histology, and integrated systems such as neuroscience, cardiovascular, and respiratory physiology, along with pathological mechanisms. Overall, the degree prepares graduates for medicine, postgraduate research, and careers in biomedical and health sciences.
