10 Studying at Bond Bond University offers three semesters a year, allowing you to complete your studies much earlier than at other universities. For instance, you may be able to complete a master s degree between one year (3 semesters) and one year and four months (4 semesters) at Bond. Bond s accelerated study mode, combined with the flexibility of our cross-faculty subject offerings, gives you the opportunity to tailor your studies to suit your specific career goals or enhance your employability by gaining extra qualifications. POSTGRADUATE STUDY Bond University offers a range of higher degrees by coursework or research. Admission to postgraduate coursework degrees generally requires an undergraduate qualification from a recognised institution. In some cases, however, extensive career experience in a relevant discipline may meet the entry criteria. Doctoral studies are completed predominantly through research guided and supervised by specialist advisors. Each faculty at Bond incorporates world-renowned research centres, headed by international authorities in their respective fields. HONOURS DEGREE An honours degree is usually two or three semesters of additional coursework, seminars and supervised research taken after completion of a bachelor s degree. It advances your knowledge and experience and helps prepare you for future research work and higher degree programs. A high level of achievement in an undergraduate course is a prerequisite of entry into an honours degree program. Honours degrees are available in the Faculty of Society & Design (Psychology only) and the Faculty of Health Sciences & Medicine. GRADUATE DIPLOMA Completed in just eight months (two semesters), the graduate diploma normally comprises eight subjects. This is an excellent option for those wishing to update their skills and qualifications in a specialist area and may be credited towards a full master s degree*. MASTER S DEGREE Master s degrees are available in a wide range of disciplines in all faculties. If you hold a bachelor degree in a similar discipline, the master s program generally comprises 12 subjects. Master s programs can be undertaken by coursework only, a combination of coursework and research, or by research only. DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (PHD) Higher Degrees by Research are completed predominantly through research, with candidates guided and supervised by specialist advisors. The PhD degree may be awarded for thesis only, or thesis and coursework or publication. DOCTORATE Doctoral degrees are offered by Bond in the areas of legal science, laws, health sciences and physiotherapy. *Excludes Psychology. Please refer to pages for Psychology specific outcomes. GRADUATE CERTIFICATE Most one-semester professional development programs generally comprise four subjects and serve as an ideal introduction to postgraduate study. This is particularly ideal for working professionals who cannot commit the time for a full master s degree. Subjects completed can normally be credited towards a graduate diploma.

11 PROFESSIONAL DEGREE Professional master s degrees are four semesters plus 20 weeks Work Integrated Learning to promote student learning and professional practice in the workplace. The total degree duration is 92 weeks (two academic years).

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Bond University s Bachelor of Medicine Bachelor of Surgery Program (MBBS) is an accredited, integrated evidence-based course offering direct entry to both Year 12 school-leavers and other university graduates. Established by one of the world s leading authorities in Evidence- Based Medicine, the program is distinguished by its strong educational focus on problem-based learning. Rather than studying one specialist area at a time, the curriculum challenges students with clinical cases that combine a range of symptoms, possible diagnoses and disciplines. The holistic learning strategy is complemented by extensive clinical practice and patient contact integrated with the theoretical study elements. The Bond MBBS program is designed to equip graduates with the knowledge and practical skills that a doctor needs to practice medicine in a modern clinical setting. A variety of teaching and learning systems are employed including case-based small group tutorials, problem-based tutorials, practical classes, clinical skills and laboratory training, self-directed learning, webbased and e-learning, interactive seminars and lectures. This combination of contemporary medical education approaches ensures that learning relates directly to patient care and prepares graduates to assume a high level of responsibility. A strong emphasis is placed on clinical skills training and due to small class sizes, students learn in a highly personalised environment with state-of-the-art equipment. With Bond s three-semesters-per-year timetable and intensive clinical training periods, the MBBS degree is completed in just 4 years 8 months, with graduates then eligible to apply for hospital internships. PROGRAM STRUCTURE* The Bond MBBS program comprises five academic years. The first three years of the program align with Bond University s 12-week semester format and extensively use problem-based learning. Each week involves a clinical case around which the learning is integrated. Year 1 Year 1 commences with the molecular and cellular foundations of life and then guides learning through the first cycle of the body systems. This cycle focuses on: Introducing the structure and function of discrete organs Psychological basis of normal human behaviour Sociological basis of the behaviours of populations The foundations of an effective practitioner are explored through an introduction to conducting effective observations of people both healthy and ill. This involves the beginning of the development of the understanding of and the skills involved in effective interpersonal communication, group work and collaborative learning.

31 Collectively integrated learning opportunities seed: Awareness of the roles of the doctor and healthcare system The impact of illness on the patient, their family and society The ethical basis of patient-centred health care Year 2 Year 2 is framed around a second cycle through the body systems and focuses on: Relationships between structure and function, building complexity into an integrative systems focus Mechanisms of disease and infectious organisms Compensatory mechanisms for restoring normal function Knowledge of psychosocial frameworks is deepened and broadened to explore the varied responses of individuals, groups, populations and cultures to disease as well as the exploration of psychosocial factors that contribute to disease and impact on patient healthcare, highlighting the complexities of health inequities. The foundation knowledge and skills of a competent practitioner continue with a focus on history taking and physical examination of discrete systems. The ethical complexities of health care are then further explored inclusive of the legal framework for provision of health care and placements in health care settings will provide the context for introducing healthcare systems. Year 3 The year will be structured around the core rotations of: Child Health Medicine Mental Health Surgery Women s Health Year 4 Year 4 consists of approximately 43 academic weeks, which includes rotations through the following clinical disciplines: Child Health Medicine Mental Health Surgery Women s Health In-Training Assessment (ITA) is conducted throughout the year.

With a focus in specific areas of: Clinical Pharmacology Endocrinology Imaging Immunology Neurology Oncology Pathology Year 3 focuses on the use of evidence in the practice of medicine. Acquisition of clinical reasoning skills will be based on the appropriate prioritisation of diagnostic possibilities, after the synthesis of complete examinations and the application of knowledge of normal structure and function and disease processes. Learning will occur in a rich clinical environment, deepening the experiential base of the impacts of psychosocial and cultural constructs on illness and healthcare and will provide the context to further explore community and population health. Professional development continues guiding development of competencies to effectively manage complex and stressful situations involving both individuals and groups. This year completes preparation for full immersion in the clinical learning environment in the Years 4 and 5.
