Hey guys. I'm new here Planning to take biomed in Monash on this coming Feb. I was wondering what kind of job oppoturnities will eb offered fr me afte i complete this degree?

Oh medical underwriter? Never heard of it. thx btw cybersetan.

One thg i wanna ask is bout the salary range. i noe tht working in these kind of filed requires interest more than bout going for the money. but one shud also know whether these jobs will be able to sustain ur living cost n all. So i was just wondering how much would i be roughly paid?

Oh, alrite. Maybe i rephrase the question again. (so sorry). Am I able to sustain a comfortable living as in i still have available cash at the end of the month for my family n myself after paying th bills, loans n stuff.

Sorry if my question is to vague or sumthg. I'm very worried bout how my career would affect me establishing financial stability in the future. I really enjoy doing biomed.

Its just tht my main proirity now is my loved ones. Am i able to support to only myself but my family too? I apologised for inspesific qestion in my previous post.

Yeah true, in desperate measures, i would rather choose another job if that job enables me to support my family n myself though i do not have much interest in it. So, in short, im saying tht i would put responsibility over my very own interests.

Unlike graduates from well rich & established families, let say a graduate earns rm1700/month, of course he/she is able to support himself/herself (cuz the family members earns enuf), but would that rm1700 now be enough for him/her to support the current household?

Jz expressing my views ya. i apologize if any of my opinions contradicts any of u guys. i come in peace!

yeah. my dad once said during his age, if anyone holds a diploma, it is as if holding a Masters qualification in the present time haha.

Man, thts a lot. 10k. But have to spend so much money till get PhD.

Btw, who graduated from biomed course adi n currently employed by a company?

Anyone?

Yeah, true. N might get slightly more holidays compared to those who r working outside. lol

Emm, if im not mistaken, the final year of the biomed is almost 100% research work rite? Or was it the year while taking Honours? I really want to clear with all the details about biomed which i will be taking this coming Feb

Oh Honours is part of degree? Ok learnt sumthg new today i tot was separated lol. Anyways, the last year of research work requires the student to work with a lecturer or with a real biomed lab scientist? Heard too much from ppl arnd me. They might gimme wrong info, so wanna make sure i get my facts right frm u guys
