Top Part time Bachelors in Allied Healthcare 2019

This vocational and professionally oriented degree will prepare students for a career as medical scientists in the areas of diagnostic pathology, research, and specialised laboratories.

The programme offers the student an opportunity to learn advanced radiotherapy and oncology procedures and techniques, as well as management and research methodology skills.

The programme is designed to build onto knowledge already acquired at Diploma level and will equip the student with knowledge in advanced radiographic procedures. Management and research methodology add to the range of skills gained during the programme.

The Bachelor of Medical and Radiation Physics is very hands-on with large practical components in all subjects studied to complement the underlying theoretical physical principles. To ensure the highest level of industry engagement, professional medical physicists from major hospitals and keynote speakers from industry will deliver key lectures and practical work, as well as co-supervise research projects. In the second year, you will gain hands-on experience in photon, neutron and charged particle physics in the undergraduate physics laboratories, as well as make field trips to accelerator facilities such as the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO). In the third year, you will also gain practical experience, particularly in electron and X-ray related medical physics at cancer treatment centres and through ANSTO.
