Biomedical engineering is about finding engineering solutions to medical problems. As a rapidly expanding industry, biomedical engineering meets the demands of healthcare through the development of technology. You’ll take part in practical activities including visits to local hospitals. You will benefit from our strong links with industry, with engineers contributing to lectures, projects and case studies, as well as offering work placements.

Our graduates are well represented in manufacturing companies and the National Health Service and in a wide range of industries in this country and abroad. Some of our graduates see Biomedical Engineering as an excellent preliminary degree for graduate entry into Medicine. The degree also provides graduates with strong transferable skills, enabling them to pursue other careers in finance, law and medicine, as well as other engineering disciplines. Our BEng and MEng degrees are accredited by the Institute of Engineering & Technology, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and the Institute of Physics & Engineering in Medicine.
