Bachelor of Medical Research

Yes. Admission requires that you must be currently enrolled in Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) or Doctor of Medicine (MD) at Western Sydney University, and have successfully completed at least 160 credit points of that program with a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 5 (credit average) before being admitted to Year 3 of the intercalated Bachelor of Medical Research.

It is expected that students will return to the medical program on completion of the intercalated year, which will complete the requirements for the Bachelor of Medical Research. However, the degree is also available as an exit point for those who do not wish to resume MD.

No. The part-time option is not available to International Students on a Student Visa. International students must study full time.

Students must be compliant with NSW Health Legislation requirements and have the following: a National Police Certificate (verified by NSW Health) submitted to Student Central, a Working with Children Check, a Student Undertaking, a First Aid Certificate (including Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation – updated yearly), a Completed Adult Immunisation Card (verified by NSW Health), and completed documentation of compliance with NSW Health Records and Information Privacy Act.

The indicative annual fee starts from $11,885 for domestic students. A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is subsidised by the Commonwealth and applicable only to domestic students, meaning the Australian Government pays part of your fees, reducing your overall program fees. Please note that fee estimates are indicative only and subject to change.
