Not all projects are listed in this circular. Other projects of possible interest to the student may be discussed with the appropriate supervisor. The Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology runs an active Bachelor of Science (Hons), Bachelor of Biomedical Science and Bachelor of Medical Science Honours program. Our students carry out their projects at the Clayton campus. If enrolling with one of our collaborative Centres, students conduct their research component at the venue and complete their coursework through the department. Our collaborative groups include, Monash Accident Research Centre, Monash Institute of Reproduction and Development (MMC), Prince Henry's Institute (MMC), Box Hill Hospital, Alfred Hospital, the Baker Heart Institute and the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine.

Students who have completed their Honours projects in this Department have had very successful career outcomes. Most have gained employment, continued on to complete their PhD or enrolled into postgraduate Medicine or allied Medical courses.

To be eligible to undertake Honours, students must have a distinction level average in at least 24 points (or equivalent) of relevant third year units.

To apply to undertake an Honours year, students should apply to the Department by the 7th November 2005 by submitting the Faculty of Science Application form. Application forms can be downloaded from the Faculty of Science web page, or be collected from the Faculty office or from the Administrative Officer, Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology office, Room 138.
