Interdisciplinary Innovation

This MSc is uniquely positioned at the intersection of the School of Engineering and Informatics and the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS). You will benefit from a dual perspective, gaining technical expertise in areas like artificial intelligence, medical robotics, bio-robotics, and signal processing, while simultaneously developing a deep understanding of human anatomy, physiology, and the clinical impacts of trauma and disease.

Students gain hands-on experience in state-of-the-art robotics and VR laboratories, alongside access to the specialized anatomy laboratory at BSMS. Your learning is solidified through an individual research project, often co-supervised by experts from both disciplines, ensuring your work is grounded in both engineering excellence and medical relevance.
