Clinical Technologies
Advances in medical technology have revolutionised the way in which we monitor and diagnose conditions. We are living longer, healthier lives than ever before — but innovation is needed to remain on this trajectory.
Through our clinical technology courses, you will learn anatomy, physiology, how to use the latest medical devices, and develop the skills to critically analyse medical data.
Swinburne is the only undergraduate provider in Australia that focuses on the medical technology used in hospitals and monitoring environments such as analytical and research laboratories.
Our clinical technology degree provides you with hands-on laboratory training in heart and brain monitoring, as well as medical imaging, to ensure you have the skills required to create a positive impact on people’s lives — from the day you enter the industry.
