Master in Biomedical Engineering

For Master in Biomedical Engineering, tuition costs 30,050 GBP per year.

This course provides you with the technical knowledge, analytical ability and transferable skills to excel in an exciting and fast-developing biomedical field. Our Biomedical Engineering MSc is designed for both recent graduates and professionals with an engineering, medical or science background. You’ll apply engineering principles to solve real-world medical challenges, and develop tools that diagnose, treat, and improve lives. The MSc has two streams, so you can specialise in your area of interest: - Biomechanical - Biomaterials You'll study specialised modules according to your choice of stream. Some taught modules are common between the two streams. Biomechanical stream This stream will enable you to: - learn how to use CAD to design new medical devices - understand fundamental aspects of biomaterials for medical applications - understand the importance of regulatory requirements for medical devices - critically assess the main advantages and limitations of medical products - understand the biomechanics of the human body - analyse the design and function of orthopaedic products - learn how to predict the life and reliability of engineering materials Biomaterials stream This stream will enable you to: - understand the fundamental properties of biomaterials for medical applications - learn the principles of tissue engineering - learn how to develop strategies for repairing damaged tissue and organs - understand how nature can help engineers develop complex functional materials, innovative designs and processes - understand the importance of regulatory requirements for medical devices - understand the biomechanics of the human body - analyse the design and function of orthopaedic products View this video where Dr Oana Bretcanu discusses the modules in this stream.
