Learn from global experts at one of the UK’s top‑ranked universities for graduate prospects in this field. Biomedical Engineering uses engineering practices and principles to analyse and design new products, processes, tools and techniques. This helps to bridge gaps across biological and healthcare challenges.

It plays an integral role in global issues where the challenge requires a bioengineering response. Our Biomedical Engineering degree will give you a thorough grounding in engineering systems and applications relevant to bioengineering. You will also gain a sound understanding of human anatomy, physiology and biological functions and the ability to apply your knowledge and skills to biomedical engineering problems.

The field is rapidly developing. Biomedical Engineers work in a variety of global sectors developing products and creating technology to help people achieve a better quality of life and break barriers in medical and sporting achievements.
