Bachelor of Health Science Pathway

The Bachelor of Health Science (BHLTH) degree at the ANU offers a pathway to the Doctor of Medicine and Surgery program. This pathway is not a formalised double degree, but a pathway between two separate degrees.

The pathway is open to both domestic and international students.

Up to 30 domestic students from the BHTLH will receive an offer to the MChD program each year. Ten (10) of these places will preferentially be offered to students from a rural background, and international students are considered in addition to these 30 places.

Offers are awarded based upon a student’s academic performance within the BHLTH, an interview process and their responses to the selection criteria.

Students must meet the minimum eligibility requirements before applying.
