The Bachelor of Biomedical Science Study Plan is for students commencing in the current semester.
Important note: only students who have completed the Associate Degree in Medical Laboratory Science at USC and have been approved for 16 courses credit into the Bachelor of Biomedical Science are eligible to follow this Study Plan.
Students commencing this pathway in Semester 2 can only be part-time enrolled and therefore it will take longer to complete the Bachelor of Biomedical Science.
