SCBIO1020 Systems Biology
This unit introduces students to the anatomy and physiology of the body. It focuses on anatomy (structure) from the cellular to the organ level of arrangement and how cells, tissues and organs work together to maintain physiology (function). Major concepts in cellular and subcellular biology are revised before understanding cellular function and arrangement into tissues, tissue function and arrangement into organs, and how organs work together both as part of separate systems and in cooperation with each other (integration).
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $1,164
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $1,164
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
