HOW TO COMPLETE YOUR STUDY PLAN
- Your study plan should include between 12 - 16 units, 72 – 96 points, depending on the number of approved conversion units you are required to take.
- Conversion, core and specialisation core units have been prepopulated on your Study Plan
- It is suggested that you take a maximum of three units in any term period and four across any semester, a maximum of eight units in one year (not all boxes will require completion in your study plan).
- Select the required number of option units and project units (if required for course by coursework and dissertation) from the list below and place only these units in a corresponding teaching period, indicated by a dashed-box overleaf
OPTIONS: i) by coursework only, take 4 units to the value of 4 points, of which 3 units must be at Level 5;
OR ii) by coursework and dissertation, take the 4 project units to the value of 24 points.
APHB5501 / Development Origins of Health and Disease / S1

PREREQUISITES FOR RESEARCH PROJECTS:Students who want to undertake a research project as an optional unit must have (a) the equivalent of a UWA weighted average mark of at least 65 per cent in at least 24 points of the Level 3 units of a relevant bachelor's degree; or (b) the equivalent of a UWA weighted average mark of at least 65 per cent in at least 24 points of Levels 3, 4 and 5 units in the master's degree. An approved supervisor must have confirmed their willingness and availability to supervise the research project.
