Course Description
aboratory medicine teaches you about pathology (the origin, nature and course of disease) and the diagnosis of disease.
Your first year is interprofessional and taken with other health sciences students. Your second year develops your knowledge of the cellular and tissue aspects of pathology, and the individual disciplines of laboratory medicine.
In your third and fourth years, you'll gain extensive field experience and focus on three of the following major disciplines: anatomical pathology, clinical biochemistry, haematology and transfusion science, immunology and medical microbiology.
You'll learn in Curtin's new PC2 laboratory facility, where you can process and analyse clinical samples, identify microbes and report results in the same way as a real pathology laboratory.
You'll also develop your practical skills when you undertake a 24-week professional placement in a diagnostic pathology laboratory.
