Program Overview

Inspire your curious mind with the Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours).

There’s no other degree like it in Australia. You’ll get to explore your interests by undertaking research as an undergraduate student, get one-on-one mentoring by leading academics… all while enjoying the camaraderie of a group of like-minded students.

The research you’ll do throughout your degree is excellent preparation for your fourth, or Honours year of your PhB. You will undertake a year-long research project under the guidance of an academic supervisor. This is where you can really indulge your passion and explore a topic in detail.


Major: Medical Research
Medical research is the foundation that underpins advances in medicine, giving insight into the mechanisms of human disease. In this honours specialisation you will be introduced to all aspects of medical research, with an emphasis on laboratory-based learning. Usually taken full time for two consecutive semesters, it is structured around a substantial research project undertaken with the guidance of a supervisor, culminating in the production of a thesis. You will develop skills in laboratory and/or analytical techniques, critical reasoning, and written and oral communication. Medical research Honours provides you with a solid foundation to the application of scientific principles to the field of human health, and can be an entry into many careers both within and outside of medical science.
