Biomedicine Enrolment Advice Day

Biomedicine Enrolment Advice Day (BEAD)

Biomedicine Enrolment Advice Day is an important academic orientation where we aim to give you the information and tools required to accept your offer, complete your enrolment and understand what academic decisions you are required to make along your journey. It will also be an opportunity to connect with the Biomedicine Students' Society. Attendance is strongly recommended.

You will meet new students just like you, key academics, current students and be given information to assist in your transition to Uni.
