education about drugs. It is neither a pharmacy degree nor a precursor for a pharmacy degree.
•The medical technology industry stream would also be suitable for students who wish to work in the industry in
an education, sales, marketing, advocacy, regulatory role or similar.
•The communication stream would suit those students wanting to work in medical/science journalism, patient
advocacy, consumer health forum work, or developing consumer programs with a health focus.
The science education stream is on the table for discussion, but not confirmed as yet.
