1 year full time |

Course code: H800

DEVELOP STATE-OF-THE-ART KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AT POSTGRADUATE LEVEL.

Warwick School of Engineering has a unique systems approach to biomedical research and teaching. Our MSc in Biomedical Engineering delivers advanced modules developed across disciplines incorporating biomedical signal processing, medical imaging, predictive modelling, medical device design, electronics, communication, software, hardware, systems thinking and machine intelligence.

In addition, you will be assigned an in-depth individual project, which will allow you to work closely with an academic on state-of-the art biomedical engineering research and innovation, often linked with industry, and with cutting-edge areas of application across the biomedical field.

The course prepares students for careers in advanced biomedical engineering, including within biomedical engineering research institutions, medical device manufacturers, medical device regulators, and, of course, hospitals. This includes research into biomedical systems and devices, their manufacture, overseeing medical device clinical trials, purchasing and maintenance.

Entry Requirements

A minimum of a 2.1 undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in an engineering, physical sciences or mathematical subject. Maths and English language requirements also apply. We are willing to consider applications from students with lower qualifications on a case-by-case basis.
