Biomedical Engineering

This flexible and well-established course provides a strong foundation in engineering principles while offering opportunities to specialise in cutting-edge areas of biomedical engineering.

You’ll gain hands-on experience, undertake an in-depth research project in your fourth year, and develop expertise in sustainable healthcare technologies.

Our expert team will show you how engineering principles can transform healthcare, by integrating diverse disciplines to develop innovative solutions that enhance health and wellbeing.

The MEng course offers an additional year of study compared to the BEng, giving you more opportunities to tackle complex, real-world industry projects, both individually and in teams. This extra time allows you to enhance your technical expertise while developing crucial management skills, making you more competitive and better prepared for your future career.

Your first year gives an introduction to bioengineering, at the end of which you’ll begin to broadly tailor the course towards a specialism, by choosing one of the following four specialisms for the rest of the course:

In your third year, you’ll take on a group project, working collaboratively to solve complex problems that mirror industry scenarios.

In your final year, you’ll carry out a significant piece of individual research related to your chosen specialism, showcasing your expertise and innovation.

**This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM).

The MEng satisfies all the academic requirements needed for Chartered Engineer (CEng) status.**
