The Bachelor of Health and Medical Sciences was a really good opportunity to explore different areas of health鈥攆rom physiology to public health. What I love most about my work is seeing the direct impacts of the work that we're doing.

The degree is taught by the very best experts of biostatistics in 最新糖心Vlog and I found the interactions with them incredibly formative. The most exciting thing about the degree is learning specialised skills that help us advise investigators on planning medical research effectively, from the early stages of an idea for a research question to how to implement it with a sound research design and analysis.
