About this course
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. So you can choose to switch to a different pathway in your second year if you want to.
The Foundation Year is an extra year of study at the start of your degree. It’s designed to boost your academic skills and knowledge of your specialist area. When you successfully complete it, you can transfer seamlessly into the full degree programme.
Why study at Hull?
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.
