Use this qualification as a pathway to further learning, including Masters by Research and doctoral studies. Study the only degree in South Australia accredited by the Australian Institute of Medical Scientists (AIMS). UniSA is an unstoppable university for unstoppable people. As one of the World’s Top Young Universities2, we’ll ensure you get the experience your future profession demands so it’ll feel like you’re studying one minute and in a career the next. 12018 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA). 2UNSTOPPABLE® is a Kellogg Company trade mark used under licence. Ranked #46, 2022 THE Young University Rankings, Ranked #29, 2021 QS Top 50 Universities Aged Under 50. Snapshot This is your chance to enter the exciting world of diagnostic pathology or research, to investigate the causes and cures for disease. Through extensive practical experience and hands-on learning, you'll develop the skills to diagnose, manage and treat disease, and conduct research into causes and cures. As a Medical Laboratory Scientist, your work will have a vital bearing on people's welfare, supporting clinicians in the diagnosis, management and treatment of disease. You’ll conduct research into causes and cures, and develop improved methods for disease detection. What you'll need You should be inquisitive and have an analytical mind, with the ability to absorb, connect and integrate information from various sources. Medical Laboratory Scientists use a range of intricate and sophisticated equipment, so a certain amount of manual dexterity is needed to conduct laboratory work effectively. Students who undertake activities where interaction with patients/the public is required for their degree, such as field or clinical placements/visits and in University clinics and gyms, must demonstrate they meet mandatory pre-placement conditional requirements. These include criminal history clearance, a Working with Children Check and immunisation requirements. Please visit the Clinical Placement Unit for information on key requirements, and to access the full student checklists. What you'll learn This honours degree prepares you for a career in all areas of pathology, with training in biochemistry, microbiology, immunology, molecular pathology, haematology and histopathology. During your first two years you’ll study natural and biomedical sciences, and during the third and fourth years you’ll strengthen your knowledge through clinical courses and practical experience. You’ll learn the theory and develop the skills required to perform a range of diagnostic tests including cross-matching for blood transfusions, identifying the organisms that cause infections and food poisoning, screening for cancer cells and detecting genes responsible for disease conditions. You’ll learn how to examine blood for any changes in its composition or function, and monitor levels of blood chemicals including sugar, electrolytes, pH, metabolites, toxins, drugs, hormones and proteins. In your third year of study all students will complete 13 weeks of valuable field placements, which is more than what is required by industry to become an accredited Medical Laboratory Scientist with the Australian Institute of Medical and Clinical Scientists (AIMS). This can be completed in South Australia, interstate or overseas. At the start of your honour’s year, you can choose to undertake Advanced Clinical Practice for 13 weeks or Experimental Research Practice for 13 weeks. In both options, you’ll work as part of a team in a diagnostic or research setting, learning how to manage specimens, perform tests and operate equipment.

All students who, as part of their program, undertake activities where interaction with patients/the public is required, such as in field or clinical placements/visits and in University clinics and gyms, must demonstrate that they have a current National Police Certificate (NPC) through SAPOL (or their home state police service) and a current Department of Human Services (DHS) Working With Children Check (WWCC) which is valid for the duration of the program. The National Police Certificate will list disclosable court outcomes that may prevent clinical placement involvement. The University has a process for reviewing these outcomes to assess suitability for placement. 2. Students must meet the vaccination requirements for health professionals prior to commencing clinical placement. Failure to meet vaccination requirements will limit placement opportunities. 3. Students are required to satisfy the standard of dress and behaviour prescribed by institutions in which clinical placements are undertaken. Failure to satisfy such obligations may prevent them from fulfilling the requirements for completion of the program. 4. Students may only enrol in the following SP5 courses if they have previously completed (and attempted all assessment components) in the corresponding SP2 course(s), viz: CHEM 1007 Chemistry 101 - CHEM 1006 Chemistry 100; BIOL 1012 Molecules to Tissues B - BIOL 1007 Molecules to Tissues A; BIOL 2037 Immunology - BIOL 2035 Physiology; BIOL 2016 Genetics - BIOL 2014 Biochemistry; MEDI 2003 Pathophysiology - BIOL 2035 Physiology AND BIOL 2036 Histology; MEDI 2005 Essential Haematology - BIOL 2014 Biochemistry AND BIOL 2035 Physiology. 5.
