MEng (Hons) Biomedical Engineering with Placement Year

Apply professional engineering knowledge to understand, modify and control biological systems on this 5-year integrated Master's degree with a sandwich placement year in industry.

You’ll study disciplines such as:

All teaching is informed by the latest research, and is delivered by experienced medical engineers and clinical scientists. You’ll also gain professional insight from leading industry partners, and hands-on practical experience in our state-of-the-art engineering laboratories.

The first three campus-based years of the MEng programme share the same curriculum as the BEng. You’ll also undertake a placement year in industry for your third year, enabling you to build contacts whilst developing your skills and professional confidence. Your final year provides additional focused study, and enables you to emerge with a Master's degree.
