Biomedical Engineering

The Biomedical Engineering BEng course prepares you to be at the forefront of the rapidly growing medical technology sector, developing your skills and knowledge to create innovative solutions that can save and improve lives.

This well-established course helps you build a strong foundation in engineering principles, while equipping you with the skills to design, innovate, and improve medical technologies. You’ll gain hands-on experience and knowledge that will empower you to make a real impact through advanced biomedical solutions.

Our expert academic team will show you how both traditional and contemporary engineering principles can be applied to transform healthcare, integrating diverse engineering disciplines to develop innovative solutions that improve health and quality of life.

The BEng offers unparalleled flexibility to allow you to tailor your course to your interests. 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:

The final year involves undertaking an individual project, where you’ll collaborate closely with an academic expert in your chosen specialism. This project allows you to apply your knowledge and skills to a real-world challenge, exploring your area of interest in depth. It also provides valuable experience that enhances your employability and prepares you for your future career.
