Program Overview

Bioengineers are leading the way in tackling modern healthcare challenges. From the development of rapid testing technologies to designing new life-saving devices.

At the interface of engineering and medicine, Bioengineering advances knowledge in engineering, biology and medicine, improving lives through cross-disciplinary activities.

Master's degree for Engineering in Biomedicine first began in 2020 and has been developed for a world where working together to solve global health problems is more important than ever. This course allows outstanding clinical and life sciences graduates to develop their technical skills and understanding of biomedical engineering. It enables them to apply these skills and knowledge to the development of life-saving technologies.

This course prepares you to analyse and solve problems in bioengineering using an integrated, multidisciplinary approach. During the course, you will develop your knowledge and be able to share your own skills and expertise through interaction with students on other programmes in the Department.

Course Content
The following core modules are compulsory for all students:
- Fundamentals of Biomedical Engineering
- Statistical and computational methods for research
- Principles of Biomedical Imaging
- Medical Device Certification
- Journal Club
Entry Requirement
Our minimum entry requirement is a 2.1 degree(or equivalent) in a clinical or life science degree. A 2.1 degree in a physical science will also be considered where there is significant human biology content.

Students from a Physical Sciences background may wish to consider our MSc Biomedical Engineering.

Applications for the programme are competitive, applications with less than a 2.1 or international equivalent will be unlikely to receive offers.

Applicants awarded an unclassified clinical degree (e.g MBBS, MBChB and MChD/BChD) are expected to show good academic standing (typically within the top 50% of their medical school cohort). Where a graded intercalated degree has been undertaken at least a 2.1 should have been achieved.

An ‘A’ grade in A-level maths (or equivalent) is desirable.
Fees & Scholarships
£35,700

Fees are charged by year of entry to the College and not year of study.

Except where otherwise indicated, the fees for students on courses lasting more than one year will increase annually by an amount linked to inflation, including for part-time students on modular programmes.
Career Prospect
Career-focused degrees ensure graduates are well-placed to gain employment in a growing industry. The global population is ageing which increases demand for biomedical engineers to create new medical devices.

There are many areas of employment open to you as a graduate of this course, and previous graduates have gone on to pursue careers in:
- Healthcare
- Medical device industry
- Research
- Medicine
- Start-ups
- Teaching
- Consultancy
- Finance
Around 60% of our Postgraduate graduates go into employment upon completion of their degree while just over a third go on to further study or training. Graduates have gone on to work at such companies as:
- Deloitte
- Ernst & Young
- GE Healthcare
- GSK
- Philips Healthcare
