The Honours program in Medical Research is designed to provide students with a firm foundation for postgraduate study in Medical Research. For students not wishing to progress further, the opportunity to undertake an in-depth research project will provide an important understanding of the processes of medical research. As well as the major research project students are required to investigate and make presentations on an area unrelated to their research topic, to provide a broader understanding of important issues in contemporary biomedical research.
