Prepare for your career in medical physics and biomedical engineering with this research-intensive one-year Master’s programme. You’ll harness physics and engineering principles and methodology, assist transformative medical research and help introduce new technologies for healthcare in industry or academia. This flexible, multidisciplinary, and research-focused Master’s is the ideal programme if you’re looking to explore experiential learning toward a research career in physics and engineering in medicine. You’ll build your research skills, working with the guidance of leading academics to complete an independent MRes research project (that is weighted twice as heavily as the equivalent project on an MSc programme). The MRes programme is highly adaptable, with a wide range of optional modules to meet your intended specialism – you can also choose a related module from across the UCL Faculty of Engineering Sciences. This MRes is an excellent starting point for further doctoral studies and a career in research, as you’ll be learning from world-leading UCL researchers at the forefront of healthcare innovations. Should you pursue further doctoral studies with the department, you’ll also get opportunities to work closely with the NHS, through our partnership with the UCLH NHS Trust and other affiliated hospitals, assisting health professionals to find important uses for new technologies.
