This programme is a Master of Engineering degree programme in Biomedical Engineering offered by the School of Electrical, Electronic and Communications Engineering and the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering. Who is the ME Biomedical Engineering for? The ME Biomedical Engineering is designed to allow mathematically strong engineers who hold a primary (Bachelors) degree in Engineering to specialise at Masters level in Biomedical Engineering. It is targeted at engineers who are seeking a professional career in the emerging field of Biomedical Engineering. What will I learn? The ME (Biomedical Engineering) degree is a multidisciplinary programme that involves lectures, tutorials, assignments, laboratory work and work placement. A wide range of core and optional modules are available to students to choose from. Alongside core engineering content, Biomedical Engineering modules available to students include: • Basic Medical Sciences • Medical Device Design • Biomaterials • Cell and Tissue Engineering • Rehabilitation Engineering • Neural Engineering • Research Methods Students will also have the opportunity to take advanced modules in physiology and anatomy. In addition to the taught content, all students will complete a research or industry placement in their first year and a major research project in their second year.
