Overview

Engineers are increasingly working with healthcare professionals to come up with new solutions to clinical problems. We are using innovative new materials including polymers and ceramics to create better orthopaedic replacement joints. We offer an exciting postgraduate degree in Bioengineering covering the latest techniques and methods in this dynamic subject, taught by lecturers who are also active researchers working with industry.

The MSc Biomedical Engineering programme is designed for engineering, mathematics and physical science graduates who want to specialise in this vibrant area of engineering. It is a multidisciplinary degree with many optional modules to reflect your interests. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of how to apply key engineering principles through both practical experimentation and computer simulations.

Programme structure

The full-time MSc programme lasts for 12 months. The first 8 months are normally spent mainly on the taught component, with lectures divided into two 12-week periods (Semesters 1 and 2), and with exams at the end of each semester. The final 4 months are spent full-time on a research project, for which some preparation is done in Semester 2.
