About this course

MEng (Hons) in Biomedical Engineering, combining engineering principles with biological knowledge for medical and healthcare applications. Core topics include Signal Processing, Embedded Systems, Circuit Design, Biomaterials, Mathematical Modelling, and Engineering Design. The first two years are taught in common with the BEng programme, followed by a compulsory industrial placement in the third year leading to the Diploma in Professional Practice. The MEng pathway includes two additional years of study with advanced modules in medical sensors and biomaterials.
