International Programme in Biomedical Sciences
Introduction
The International Programme in Biomedical Sciences (IPBMS) is the result of a collaborative effort between Republic Polytechnic and the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, Monash University, Australia. It offers polytechnic students in the field of biomedical sciences an additional pathway to gain a degree.
The IPBMS admits students who are enrolled in the third year of RP’s Diploma in Biomedical Sciences programme. Students undertaking their Diploma in Biomedical Sciences will take 2 additional modules within their three years at RP to apply for admission into the third year of the Bachelor of Biomedical Science course at Monash University.
Studying in a Medical Faculty
As the Bachelor of Biomedical Science course at Monash University is offered by the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, students have the opportunity of working closely with medical researchers and practitioners at the cutting edge of research in diverse domains of the field of biomedical sciences.
On completion of the Bachelor’s degree, students who do well may go on to complete their Honours year. Students may also apply for admission to a postgraduate medicine programme offered at a few universities in Australia.
