Our MSc in Biomedical Engineering provides a comprehensive education in engineering technology, combined with essential life sciences knowledge to enable you to build innovative healthcare technology and medical devices.
You’ll work alongside researchers at the leading edge of biomedical engineering to solve key problems and remove barriers to innovative healthcare technology. You will have the opportunity to explore human anatomy and physiology, whilst learning about medical technology and rehabilitation devices and gaining an understanding of how innovators get these products to market.
You’ll specialise in system modelling and build expertise in biomaterials, wearable devices and prosthetics, covering machine learning algorithms for data analysis and biomechanics, all of which are essential to building innovative healthcare. Optional modules focus on leading-edge technologies for biomedical engineers. You will also have the opportunity to build a healthcare technology as an individual project and pursue the required aspects of bringing it to market.
2.1 Honours degree (or equivalent) in a relevant Engineering subject.
2.2 Honours Degree (or equivalent) and other science discipline subjects considered on a case-by-case basis.
