Health & biomedicine revitalised at VU
Choose from a range of health and biomedicine courses at VU - the first Australian university to use a 'block' model of learning, where you study one unit at a time rather than juggling several at once, making your transition to university easier.
Industry connections & placements
We have numerous diverse connections with local, national and international health organisations. These include The Royal Children’s Hospital, Peter McCallum Institute, British School of Osteopathy and London Ambulance.
We also have long-standing partnerships with Western Health, Werribee Mercy Hospital and Ambulance Victoria.
Colleges & schools
Our health and biomedicine courses are delivered by our College of Health & Biomedicine and VU Polytechnic (our TAFE division) across different VU campuses. Health & biomedicine research is conducted by the Institute for Health & Sport.
