<div><p>We all naturally have the desire for ourselves, family and friends to lead a long and healthy life. Medical Engineers play a vital role in the healthcare sector from designing, developing, maintaining, and improving components in medical instruments, rehabilitation, prostheses or joint replacements. So if you’re looking for a rewarding career that really makes a difference to people’s lives this course could be for you. The course begins by covering the fundamentals of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering, such as electronics, mechatronics, mechanics and robotics so you’re confident in the basics. Then in your second year we’ll introduce you to anatomy, specifically gait analysis, which is the study of joint biomechanics and the movement of the legs and feet during walking and running. You’ll look at material properties, learning how materials are selected to operate in the challenging environment of the human body. You’ll also learn how medical imaging technologies work, with hands on experience of X-Ray machines, CT scans and Ultrasonic technologies, which are used in daily clinical practice. Human disease and injury will be covered in the final year, we’ll get you thinking about the consequences and potential diagnosis options. You’ll also look at the range of individualised medical devices, and their mechanical design techniques, which includes 3D printing solutions. During your studies you have the chance to take a placement after your second year, you could work in the industry and put what you’ve learnt into practise. Additional costs: You’ll need to cover the cost of your safety boots, which are a compulsory requirement. The cost will be dependent on where you purchase your boots, but typically you can purchase them online from between £8.99 and £19.99.</p></div>
