Assessment

Exams, written and oral assignments and investigative projects; includes both individual and group participation.

For those who are based in Adelaide, we will be offering a blended delivery mode that combines face-to-face with remote learning in as many courses as possible, taking into consideration social distancing and hygiene. All lectures will continue to be delivered online for the remainder of the year, with some exceptions.

For our students who are studying offshore for the remainder of the 2020 Academic Year, the University will continue to offer high-quality access to the learning resources remotely. This includes all lectures, tutorials and other support material. Students will be advised in advance if there are course components that cannot be provided in remote mode and, wherever possible, offered alternative courses.

Career Readiness

Biotechnology is one of the fastest growing global industries, helping to develop better methods of diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of diseases.&nbsp; There are very strong career opportunities for graduates, particularly those who possess strong laboratory skills combined with an understanding of research and product development.

The University of Adelaide Careers Service prepares, inspires and empowers students to achieve successful career transitions and connect with industry.
