Become an expert analyst and help lead the change, with a Master of Genome Analytics at Monash University.

 

The Monash Master of Genome Analytics – the only course of its kind in Australia - will provide you with expert training in bioinformatics, genetics, genomics, and diagnostics. The program’s multidisciplinary structure and focus on industry and clinical application will provide you with hands-on experience to prepare you for your career. You will be part of a unique graduate cohort able to meet the growing demand for expertise in the analysis of genome sequence data.

 

As a graduate of this degree, you will become a holistically-trained expert, workplace-ready, and equipped with the knowledge and skills to help revolutionise the future of healthcare.

 

Through the identification of predispositions to disease, the origin of infertility and birth defects, and other genetic disorders, genome analysis is saving lives - but it could be saving many more.

 

With continued improvements in DNA sequencing technology, genome-based diagnosis and health management, the healthcare system stands at the gateway to a future where diseases are diagnosed early and precise treatments provided. However, in the absence of enough specialist genome analysts, we cannot translate and expand the discoveries from genome sequencing to the healthcare system, and ultimately improve health.
