This programme is taught on the SUSTech campus in Shenzhen and is aimed at Chinese students. This programme is a joint programme leading to double degree awards from Kings College London and the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech): students take a single programme of study, the successful completion of which leads to separate awards from both Kings and SUSTech.

Key benefits

• The programme design offers students a unique experience in being able to obtain two degree awards.
• Kings is recognised as one of the international leaders in Biomedical Engineering education.
• The programme is taught by a combination of academic and clinical researchers at the forefront of their field.
• Students will acquire experience of practical laboratory sessions multi-disciplinary teamworking preparing and giving oral presentations using computational tools and packages working independently and assessing ethical issues.
• The programme is designed to prepare students to enter jobs in the evolving field of biomedical engineering, healthcare research or further study in medicine.
• Both Kings and SUSTech have strong links with the healthcare technology industry, providing opportunities for students to select projects which align to their career aspirations.

The joint Biomedical Engineering degree programme has been designed to train the next generation of biomedical engineers working in healthcare research and development. The practice of medicine is being transformed by the increasing role of engineering, physics, mathematics, and computer science. This four- year course will position you at the forefront of these developments and will provide you with an understanding of the most fundamental principles of engineering applied to healthcare and a foundation in mathematics, human anatomy, and physiology.
