The programme is led by the Department of Engineering with some input from the Department of Biosciences. Prospective students registered in this new innovative programme will gain the necessary skills for a career in the Biomedical and Biotechnology fields with an outlook of learning skills for designing and developing relevant biomedical devices and products used in the health sector as well as gaining knowledge of the mechanics and operation of artificial organs in the human body.The programme also covers the use of data and artificial intelligence methods in helping with addressing some of the most pressing challenges in the field of Biomedical Engineering as well as other relevant engineering challenges when applicable.The core content in this programme is delivered in lecture modules which typically involve 20 hours of lectures plus one or two hours of revision lectures. In addition, at the start of the programme students may be presented with a package of self-study reading material for each module.Core modules are typically delivered in lecture form (typically one hour per week). Some modules may include guest lectures and seminars from external speakers from both academia and industry within the fields relevant to the degree programme.Modules typically cover a wide range of topics relating to the functioning and mechanics of human body and design and operation of artificial organs pertaining to human body.The module Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning is designed to provide students with a broad spectrum of knowledge on the novel applications of artificial intelligence and deep learning methods applied to biomedical applications as well as wider engineering applications.
The MSc in Biomedical Engineering is designed for graduates from an engineering, sciences (physics) or relevant background with significant engineering/sciences content.You will need a UK first or upper second-class honours degree or equivalent in engineering, sciences (physics) or a relevant related subject.This programme may admit prospective candidates with joint honours degrees in Biology and Physics and Biology and Chemistry provided that the candidates have at minimum one-year post UK A-levels mathematics training (especially topics such as advanced statistics and probability theory and differential equations).
