Translational Medicine is an emerging discipline that targets the pathway from basic science to clinical medicine, and from clinical trials into standard clinical practice and into health policy.  This new discipline integrates and articulates separate but related fields, with the ultimate goal of improving medical therapies and health outcomes. The program is designed for graduate students that wish to further their academic qualifications in translational medicine via a coursework rather than a research based program. It is ideally suited for people working in clinical and allied health disciplines, in health policy and administration or for Bachelor of Medical Science, or Science graduates who wish to position their scientific knowledge within a translational framework.

The program has 2 core integrative courses and the remaining courses can be selected from electives chosen from a number of themes: Fundamental Discovery; Translational Medicine and Health Sciences; Health Policy and Practice; and Global Health. 

Note: All students must commence in the winter session to begin the program with MEDN8000 - Translational Medicine: From Discovery to Healthcare
