La Trobe Biomedical Science: Biomedical science, the study of health and disease, plays an important role in modern medical care. Subjects covered in this course are similar to the pre-clinical components of a medical degree. The biomedical scientist requires an understanding of medical biochemistry, microbiology, pharmacology, cell and molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, infectious diseases and neuroscience. Students can gain skills in a range of biomedical techniques and the ability to understand, critically analyse and interpret scientific and biomedical data. Learn how to read and research scientific publications and also develop written skills to convey scientific and biomedical information.
It seems that La Trobe is giving out a science degree with a biomedical focus which is similar to UMelb's Biomedicine degree. Since UMelb's Bio degree is very, very similar to it's BSc, I'd imagine that La Trobe's Bio degree is very similar in content to a major that you can study at the University of Melbourne though a Bachelor of Science.
I don't know much about La Trobe, but I do hear that their Health Sciences faculty is quite strong. However I reckon that if the two courses are alike (which from first glance, I believe they are) I think that going to UMelb or Monash would be a better option. You also to have to consider travel times and what not.
