For me, I would like to get into medical science and go into some kind of research. From what i have read and heard, it seems like it is quite difficult in getting a job after graduating from Med. Science. If that is so, i am planning to go into teaching if i can't find a job after graduating. Can i sign up to become like a bio/chem teacher at high school when i grafuate from medical science or i have to do the bachelor of education degree?

Doing B Med Sci here, yeah the degree has low job prospects. This degree I guess can be referred to as the gateway into post med or dentistry? Pretty sure for any type of teaching you'll need a education degree

Research you need a PHD right? Or at least a masters?

No, you need honours. Which is the 4th year of study you do.
It involves 1 year of research and a thesis.

After that, you can probably find a research job if you get first class and do good research.

You'll most likely need to do further studies
