Graduate study in the Department of Molecular Medicine and Pathology usually requires
a background in advanced cellular and molecular biology, and/or biochemistry. If
this is not present, students are often required to complete a year of transitional
study in appropriate subjects at the Stage III BSc level prior to commencing graduate
study. Because entry into the graduate programmes is competitive, this year of transitional
study also provides the opportunity to demonstrate excellence. More information
on transitional requirements can be obtained from the
Graduate Studies Coordinator at the
Department of Molecular Medicine and Pathology.
The Bachelor of Human Biology (Honours) is available to medical students who have

- your IELTS, TOEFL and TWE test scores if you have sat such tests within the last
two years
- transcripts of your highest tertiary qualification
- curriculum vitae and/or resume

topic and areas of interest for doctoral study. When you detail your research interest,
please ensure you succinctly record the area of research which particularly interests
you, why you have chosen this area, and what you hope to achieve during your studies
at The University of Auckland.
As the EOI is an online process, you will need to log in. If you are a student
