检验医学学士（荣誉学位）

该学位为您准备了在病理学各个领域的职业，并提供了生物化学，微生物学，免疫学，分子病理学，血液学和组织病理学方面的培训。您将在第三年和第四年完成行业经验后，将在我们的校园实验室中获得实践经验，并有机会在实际临床环境中练习这些技能。如果您从事研究课程，则将完成13个星期的临床实习；如果您进行高级临床实习，则将完成26个星期的临床实习。此现场安置可以在南澳大利亚州，州际或海外完成，并将在13周内提供。
This degree includes courses in haematology, transfusion science, clinical biochemistry, clinical microbiology, histopathology and cytopathology.This qualification will set you apart from your competitors and will provide you with advanced knowledge of, and skills in, research methodology and research practice.Practical field placements are a great opportunity for you to begin to build your network of industry contacts – in fact, some of our students secure employment before they graduate because of the industry relationships built during this time.You will also work alongside experienced researchers when you complete research preparation and project courses during your final year. This affiliation will provide you with exceptional learning and networking opportunities.This honours degree prepares you for a career in all areas of pathology, with training in biochemistry, microbiology, immunology, molecular pathology, haematology and histopathology.During your first two years you will study natural and biomedical sciences, and during the third and fourth years you will strengthen your knowledge through clinical courses and practical experience.You will learn the theory and develop the skills required to perform a range of diagnostic tests including cross-matching for blood transfusions, identifying the organisms that cause infections and food poisoning, screening for cancer cells and detecting genes responsible for disease conditions. You will also learn how to examine blood for any changes in its composition or function, and monitor levels of blood chemicals including sugar, electrolytes, pH, metabolites, toxins, drugs, hormones and proteins.<br><br>Career outcomes - :<br><br>As a Medical Laboratory Scientist, you will support clinicians in the diagnosis, management and treatment of disease, to conduct research into the causes and cures for disease, and to develop improved tests for disease detection. You may also recommend possible treatments, monitor dosage and effects, as well as track the progress of patients.You should be inquisitive and have an analytical mind, and you will need to have the ability to absorb, connect and integrate information from various sources. Medical Laboratory Scientists use a range of intricate and sophisticated equipment, so a certain amount of manual dexterity is needed to conduct laboratory work effectively.
