Biomedical engineering is about finding engineering solutions to medical problems. As a rapidly expanding industry, biomedical engineering meets the demands of healthcare through the development of technology.We have strong links with the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Spinal Injuries Unit through the Scottish Centre for Innovation in Spinal Cord Injury. The Biomedical Engineering programme has an emphasis on Medical Device Regulation. Final year students will take a course in Entrepreneurship in Biomedical Engineering in order to equip students with the skills and knowledge to launch their own venture. Final year MEng students will undertake a six months placement in industry, an overseas university or within University of Glasgow research facilities. Our BEng and MEng degrees are accredited by the Institute of Engineering and Technology and the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine, and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. We have several Engineering student societies, which include GUBMES, Sensus and Handprints. You’ll take part in practical activities including visits to local hospitals. You will benefit from our strong links with industry and the NHS, with engineers and clinicians contributing to lectures, projects and case studies, as well as offering work placements.Our graduates are well represented in manufacturing companies, the NHS and in a wide range of industries in the UK and abroad. This can be an excellent preliminary degree for graduate entry into medicine.
