About this course
Master of Engineering in Biomedical Engineering (Mechanics and Materials), a biomedical engineering degree centred on mechanical and material approaches to healthcare technology. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Signal Processing, Control Systems, Data Analysis, Mathematical Modelling, Accounting, Engineering Design, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. The programme is also available with an industrial placement year. The first year covers foundations through An Introduction to Engineering Design, Data Science and Computing for Engineers, and Mechanics, Structures and Materials. The second year progresses with Biomedical Engineering Research, Design and Practice, Electronics and Control, and Systems Design and Computing. The third year includes Biomaterials, Orthopaedic Biomechanics, and an Individual Project alongside optional choices such as Robotic Systems or Finite Element Analysis in Solid Mechanics. The final year involves Biomedical Application of Signal and Image Processing and Computational methods in biomedical engineering design, paired with a Group Design Project and further optional modules like Introduction to Machine Learning.
