Pathology Queensland Graduate Medical Scientist Program

As a graduate, you’ll get training in the core areas of medical science, building on the clinical knowledge from your degree. You’ll also take part in activities that encourage teamwork and self-awareness.

You can apply for our graduate program if:

  • you’ll finish a degree in Medical Laboratory Science or similar before the program starts
  • your studies include haematology, blood transfusion, clinical chemistry, clinical microbiology and anatomical pathology.

We give preference to applicants who’ve graduated within the last 18 months and haven’t worked in the field yet.

You’ll do your training in one of our large laboratories across the state – anywhere from Cairns to the Gold Coast. If we can, we’ll put you in your preferred location. We’ll talk to you about the location when we offer you a position.
