MSc Bioengineering

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MSc 1 year full-time

Course Description

Whether it’s biomechanics and biomaterials, bioimaging and bioseng, or a combination of both, this 12-month course aims to provide science and engineering graduates from diverse backgrounds with a solid grounding in modern bioengineering technologies.

This multidisciplinary masters covers practical and theoretical aspects of bioengineering, including:

  • Medical imaging
  • Medical device design and regulation
  • Cell-biomaterial surface interactions
  • Materials characterisation
  • Functionalisation of surface
  • Biomechanics

The course will prepare students for a wide variety of careers within industry, hospitals, clinical or research environments, independent learning, or for further education within postgraduate research.

Entry Requirements

A high 2:2 (or international equivalent) in a relevant subject. Applicants with an engineering or physical sciences degree or the BSc Biotechnology are eligible to apply.
