What jobs follow biomedical science?
Research assistant, laboratory scientist, clinical trials, pharmaceutical and diagnostics companies, or further study.
Is biomedical science the same as medical science?
Close: Western Sydney and Flinders call it medical science, Wollongong medical and health sciences, ANU health science.
Can I do an honours year?
