The Professional Certificate in Cosmetic Science was created in recognition of the need for specialised health science training that enables students to quickly enter the sector as professionals. Made from two units of our Bachelor of Applied Health Science (Clinical Aesthetics), the Professional Certificate in Cosmetic Science is an unaccredited course that delves into the science behind cosmetics with an emphasis on chemistry and its application to the integumentary system, preparing you for a variety of professional roles.

This course is delivered through our state-of-the-art online learning platform. Here you will learn the science that underpins dermal therapy practice, such as human skin biology and the chemistry of cosmetics.
