Biofluid mechanics applies engineering, mathematical and physical principles of fluids to solve complex and multifaceted problems primarily in biology and medicine, but also in aerospace and robotics.
Our MRes course covers a wide range of multidisciplinary training on the kinematics and dynamics of fluids related to biological systems, medical science, cardiovascular devices, numerical modelling and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), focusing on research. The MRes differs from an MSc in that you'll have the opportunity to perform multidisciplinary research for a longer time, preparing you for a research career and equipping you with world-class research knowledge.
The course is taught by the Department of Biomedical Engineering, with input from other departments across the Faculty and the wider University.
During the course, you'll be supported by a strong team of academics with worldwide connections and you'll be offered a unique training and innovative teaching and learning environment.
What you'll study:
This one-year programme consists of compulsory and optional classes in Semesters 1 & 2. Each class has timetabled contact hours – mainly lectures, laboratories and tutorials. You'll choose and start your MRes research project in Semester 1 with guidance from a supervisor and continue to work on it throughout the year.
Support & development:
The MRes course aims to train students in the Biofluid Mechanics field, targeting primarily the academic research market, but also the Medical Devices and Simulation/Analysis software industries and other related and new emerging markets.
Our postgraduates will benefit from world-class training and acquire competitive skills in both biomedical and fluid dynamics disciplines that will make them highly employable in the following markets and related sectors/companies:
academic research
medical device market
simulation and analysis software market
biosimulation market
NHS the healthcare/medical simulation market
life science research tools and reagents market
A first or second-class Honours degree in engineering, physical science, or mathematics.
