Mechanical Engineering with Biomechanics Meng (Hon)

Biomechanical engineering combines mechanical engineering fundamentals with biological systems to develop technology that improves healthcare and peoples quality of life. Mechanical engineering is concerned with the creative and imaginative use of principles and science to shape the world around us, through the development of new materials, technologies, processes and products. <br/><br/>Mechanical Engineers design and develop everything that moves or has moving parts, ranging from spacecraft and aeroplanes to racing cars, from household goods like refrigerators to the small motors that turn a DVD in a DVD player, from robotic control of machinery to nanotechnologies, from mechanical hearts and artificial limbs to fitness machines, and from oil and gas exploration and production technologies to wind turbines.<br/><br/>For the first 4 years of this five-year MEng programme, you will follow the BEng Mechanical Engineering curriculum, including the fundamental principles and concepts of mathematics, mechanics, materials and thermodynamics. In your fifth year, you will specialise further in biomaterials and biomechanics so that you can use your combined expertise and knowledge to design, develop and test healthcare equipment to solve medical and biological problems.
