On Campus

Bachelor of Medical Science and Medicine is designed as an integrated curriculum, with units taught in an interdisciplinary fashion by staff from across the faculty and in a wide range of learning environments, both campus and clinical. Interdisciplinary units introduce the basic medical and behavioural sciences of anatomy, biochemistry, genetics, immunology, microbiology, pathology, pharmacology, physiology, psychology and sociology. Year three to five of the course are conducted in clinical settings, generally in hospitals and practices across metropolitan Melbourne and rural Victoria. Students will spend around 40 hours per week working at a clinical site, allowing them time for self-directed study, and the time and opportunity to be in control of their own learning and to develop skills in problem-solving and the critical appraisal of information. Year five offers rotations through several clinical settings, such as aged care and emergency care, with the chance for elective and selective studies. The course is accredited by the Australian Medical Council. After successfully completing the course, graduates become eligible for provisional registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency and the Medical Board of Australia. After serving a compulsory internship year of residence in an approved hospital, domestic graduates become eligible for final registration in Victoria and other states of Australia.
