    Biohealth Science graduate here 🙋🏻
    As you can see. For the other 7 bio-related courses under Fac of Science UM, during the 1st year, you need to learn all biology related courses not specific to your major. E.g Biology of Organisms, you learn taxonomy, from prion to mammals.
    Only from 2nd year (3rd sem) you start learning your major subjects.
    Plant-related subjects were offered because many of our lecturers specialised in medicinal plants.
    By the way Biohealth & Bioinformatics are no longer offered. Gov scraps them off.

      Heyyyy there, thanks so much for the updated information. Yas, I was talking to a bioinformatics lecturer few days ago and just found out their last batch of undergraduate students are leaving soon. Sad to hear since it was the higher ups decision to have the courses removed.

    Nicely done, Wisely! I think much of this info can be extrapolated to other universities around the world. While you're highlighting the differences, it's important to say that there's much overlap too, and especially later, when you search for a job, people with different diploma's from either of all these courses you compared, could compete for the same job. For example: if you get a Master's project in Biomed about genetics (or a genetic disease) and it involves sequencing, then you might have gained similar skills (or a portion of them) with those that did genetics/bioinformatics. Good use of the colors as well: there's actually color codes in biotech areas, like green for agriculture, blue for marine, etc. (I have a video on that). Basically with a biomed degree you can get into RED biotech (healthcare related, or biopharma).
    And then one last thing: if you compare biomed courses around the world, there's even differences in those programs as well! (Have a video on that too!)
    Good job helping younger people get informed to follow their passion! That's exactly why I started my own channel. Great to see others like you do the same!
    PS: which martial art do you train in (trailer)? Kung-Fu I'm guessing?
    Cheers!

    Hi Wisely. If I interested in clinical embryology, assisted reproductive technology, human fertility and andrology which course should you suggest to me?

    • @wisely_koay
      @wisely_koay  3 роки тому

      Those are very specific courses 😄. I would still say biomed would be the best choice for you since all of the course you are interested in revolves around the human body. But I'd have to be honest that even in biomed sc, we might not learn such specific aspects of your interests.

      Not specifically as biomedical science is very broad. But a few of our courses such as molecular techniques or bioinformatics might use it. 😊
