About this course

Combine practical with theoretical in this hands-on Biomedical Engineering course. The medical devices sector is fast-growing, and as medical science advances, biomedical engineers are even more in demand.

Put your lab skills to use on hospital visits. Get hands-on with medical tech. Test biomaterials and medical devices, and learn practical skills like dissection to cement your knowledge of human anatomy and surgical conundrums.

Like all our Engineering courses, Biomedical Engineering shares a common first year, which means you can choose to switch to a different pathway in your second year. It also offers a four-year Integrated Masters (MEng) option. This lets you study a year at postgraduate level on top of your degree.

Why study at Hull?

  • Close links to the NHS: Tap into our links with the NHS and medical device companies, including Smith & Nephew and Johnson & Johnson.

  • 100% employability: A perfect 100% of our graduates are in work or further study 15 months after graduating,¹ putting the hands-on experience they gained here to good use.

  • Triple-accredited for chartership fast-track: Accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Institution of Engineering Technology and IPEM, this degree accelerates your journey to becoming a Chartered Engineer.

    Where could this take me?

    Medical engineers have their choice of employers in an industry worth multiple billions of pounds.

    With our strong industry contacts and your practical experience, you could join a regulatory agency, major medical device company like Smith & Nephew (based right here in Hull) or take a role in the NHS. Many of our students have job offers before they even graduate.

    Choose a four- or five-year course option to add a placement year and an integrated Masters to your study, making you even more valuable to future employers.
