The Diploma of Nursing has been designed to help you build knowledge and skills in a practical learning environment. Through on-campus simulation laboratories and industry placements, you'll graduate ready to help others.

There continues to be a high demand for enrolled nurses, and job expectations in this field are strong. In this nationally-accredited diploma, you will gain the skills to help provide acute, curative and rehabilatative care under the direction of a registered nurse.

You’ll learn to work with patients of all ages in different environments. There is a focus on aged care, community, acute care and mental health. You’ll also learn how to administer intravenous medications and gain the skills in acute care, which involves medical and surgical nursing skills.

Throughout your study, you can expect to study topics including:

• Basic anatomy and physiology
• Wound management
• Analysing health information
• Infection control
• Medications and intravenous administration
• Caring for patients with acute and chronic conditions
• Nursing care for diabetes
• Implementing nursing care plans
• Evaluating the care provided
• Researching and applying evidence-based practice.

You’ll benefit from a technology-enhanced learning experience using simulation laboratories, and a new web-based simulation. This combined with a minimum of 400 hours of work placement ensures that you will graduate work-ready.

A Bachelor of Psychology from RMIT will provide you with a wide range of knowledge and skills in human behaviour.

In addition to the principles of personality, psychopathology and psychotherapy, you will explore social, developmental, biological and cognitive psychology, as well as research methods in psychology.

Thoughout the psychology degree, you will explore topics such as perception and consciousness, theories of learning, memory, cognition, emotion, motivation, and stress. You will also undertake studies in Health Wellbeing and Nutrition, Counselling and Virtual Care, as well as concepts behind Working with Psychological Health.

Your study will be based on the Scientist-Practitioner Model, where you will apply research knowledge to actual situations to help resolve real human problems.

This degree is the basis for further study if you want to become a practising psychologist.

It also includes other therapies such as acupuncture, cupping (applying a heated cup to the skin to create suction) and tui na (remedial massage).

The emphasis is on the integration of Chinese medicine and western medical sciences, working together with the health community to provide the community with skilled health practitioners in Chinse medicine. Advanced clinical training is provided in Australia and China (where practicable) to broaden your clinical experience.

Graduates will be able to practise Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture at an internationally accepted level, with the capacity to launch careers in independent practice, or working within healthcare organisations as a Chinese medicine practitioner registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).

It is a unique supervisor-guided independent research project with complimentary workshops in research methods and scientific communication appropriate to your chosen research discipline. Specifically, the benefits of an honours degree are:

• Learning advanced problem-solving skills
• Developing science communication skills in parallel with critical and independent thinking
• Developing an aptitude for independent research and research techniques
• Gaining advanced knowledge in your scientific discipline.

The transferable skills and independent research experience gained as part of this honours degree are unique from those learnt during undergraduate studies. These skills and experiences are required for future higher degree by research study, and are expected in most academic and research positions. Many non-academic employers also recognise these skills as highly desirable in prospective employees. In consultation with the program coordinator and your potential supervisor, you’ll be allocated a project that aims to complement your skills and areas of interest.

You'll examine how such disorders affect biomechanics, the nervous system and health in general. The focus is on manual treatments such as spinal adjustments and other joint and soft-tissue manipulation.

Anatomy, physiology and pathology courses underpin the clinical science studies of physical examination, differential diagnosis for the chiropractor and clinical practicum.

You will begin work-integrated learning immediately, culminating in your fourth year when you will perform patient-care duties with supervision from a registered practitioner.

At the RMIT Health Clinic at University Hill, Bundoora, fourth and fifth year students, under the supervision of registered chiropractors, treat patients using a wide variety of management approaches.

In this degree, you will learn to strategically apply new technologies and modes of manufacturing to help streamline operations and innovate.

Within the manufacturing industry, factory systems are evolving to meet customers’ changing expectations and keep pace with global competition. These changes impact everything and everyone, from the factory floor to the boardroom, and there’s a growing need for experts with knowledge of the latest technological and operational strategies.

The Master of Engineering (Manufacturing) explores sustainable engineering, Industry 4.0 technologies and biomedical manufacturing, and more.

Studying in the heart of Melbourne, you will build essential skills in project management, conduct research, and have the option to hone your engineering knowledge in a range of specialised elective subjects.

We have a multidisciplinary research base that offers opportunities to conduct biomedical research in a range of areas.

Under expert supervision, you will develop your skills and join researchers already active in

• Aquatic and marine biology
• Ecotoxicology (biomarkers for environmental pollutants)
• Environmental and molecular approaches to diagnose and develop solutions for disease, agricultural and environmental problems
• Genomics and sequencing techniques applied to various organisms
• Microbiology (food, medical and environmental biotechnology, vaccine development, fundamentals of pathogen/host interactions)
• Plant biology (plant biotechnology and genomics, molecular plant breeding, ecotoxicogenomics, fire and environmental ecology)
• Genomics and sequencing techniques applied to various organisms.

The Bachelor of Education is designed around relevant, up-to-date course content to prepare you for the challenging, yet rewarding, world of education.

Combining a variety of contemporary, interactive learning and teaching approaches—including both face-to-face and online delivery modes—this immersive degree covers all of the bases required to become an exceptional teacher.

At RMIT, you get to decide what kind of teacher you’d like to be. Choose from specialisations in:

• General primary
• Early childhood
• Disability inclusion
• Physical education and sport

Through your subject selection, you can choose to build your expertise in English/literacy, mathematics/numeracy, or STEM.

With advanced technical expertise and research skills, graduates of the Master of Food Science and Technology are fully-equipped to participate in the rapidly advancing field of food science and technology and apply their expertise in inter-disciplinary contexts.

You’ll develop skills and knowledge of food processing and preservation; chemical properties of food materials; food safety, packaging and labelling; and food product and process innovation. You will also undertake subjects to support the wide range of technical positions required by the food industry.

If your background is in science, engineering, agriculture or other related disciplines, the Master of Food Science and Technology is designed to provide professional training in this field. If you have previously completed studies in food science and technology, this degree will enhance and expand your knowledge in the area.
