Biomedical Engineering (Biomaterials)

Advance your understanding of key aspects of bioengineering in relation to biomaterials on this Master's course.

You'll gain the technical knowledge and transferable skills required to pursue a career in bioengineering, while developing specialist expertise in the field of biomaterials.

You'll explore both existing and new biomaterials and their application in medical and surgical devices.

You'll also examine the development of materials for new applications, the response of cells, and the design of materials as scaffolds for tissue engineering.

An individual research project is a key component of your studies. This provides you with an opportunity to apply your knowledge to current research problems.

Teaching is shared across our South Kensington and White City campuses. This includes the Sir Michael Uren Biomedical Engineering Hub, our new centre of MedTech innovation.
