Undertaking the ACU Diploma in Biomedical Science will help you to develop the academic skills and university experience needed to succeed in more advanced tertiary study.
Whether you have just finished Year 12 or finished years ago, our Diploma in Biomedical Science is a Commonwealth supported place (CSP-funded) and will help you achieve your goals.
We are here to support you from start to finish. We ensure smaller class sizes, offer tailored support as you transition to university study, and provide a range of student services to help you succeed.
