Biomedical Engineering including a Foundation Year

Biomedical Engineering
Business and research environments need engineers who can design complete solutions involving complex integrated systems. Biomedical Engineering at Kent educates engineers that can develop systems used in medical practice and biology research.

This cross-disciplinary programme is designed for students with an equally strong interest in engineering and biology/medicine. Drawing from our established expertise in engineering technologies and from the research synergies with the School of Biosciences, this degree produces engineers with a solid knowledge in biology and medical science.

Foundation year
If you don't have the right grades to enrol directly on to our BEng (Hons) Biomedical Engineering degree, you could opt to start your studies with our Foundation year. The extra year is intended to give you the best possible preparation for success on the degree pathway.

Accreditation
This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology.
