MEng Mechanical Engineering / Biomedical Engineering
We've changed some parts of this course for the 2020 to 2021 academic year due to coronavirus (COVID-19). These changes may affect how we'll teach you and which modules you'll take.
Combine your engineering skills with biology and medicine. Learn to design, develop and test medical devices and specialise in areas that interest you, like implants, biomaterials and orthopaedics. Biomedical engineering is a growing field, so this course will help you find a rewarding career as a chartered engineer.
The first 2 years of this specialist course follow the same content to our degree in Mechanical Engineering. In the third and fourth years, you can focus on topics such as the mechanics of the human body, and the human factors in engineering.
You'll use our design workshops and studios and gain practical experience on a variety of projects.
As part of this course you can:
use our range of engineering facilities
showcase your work in our annual Engineering Design Show
learn about the computational tools that help doctors analyse large amounts of patient data
put your skills into practice with an individual project and final year group design project
work with students from other engineering specialisms
We're a designated university for the Defence Technical Undergraduate Scheme (DTUS).
Enhance your employability by taking this course with a paid industrial placement year.
Apply using:
You'll spend this extra year at an engineering firm, applying the skills and knowledge you've learned so far.
The fee is 20% of the standard annual tuition fee.
