Biomedical Engineering (Healthcare) MSc

The Biomedical Engineering (Healthcare Pathway) MSc is a programme for intercalating medical students and Life Science related, non-engineering graduates. The MSc provides students with a sound knowledge of the principles of the key sub-disciplines within biomedical engineering and develops skills vital to the role of engineering in Healthcare.<br/><br/>**Please note that this programme is suitable for intercalating medical students.**<br/><br/>BEng Aerospace, Mechanical or Civil Engineering Graduates from University of Liverpool are not eligible for this programme.<br/><br/>Biomedical engineers are vital to Healthcare<br/><br/>The scope of Biomedical Engineering in Healthcare encompasses many aspects and careers in:<br/><br/><br/>- Developing Medical devices for diagnosis, treatment & rehabilitation<br/><br/><br/>- Measurement, modelling, monitoring and simulation of human physiology and anatomy<br/><br/><br/>- Tissue engineering and biomaterials<br/><br/><br/>- Inventing & developing products for wellness & independent living.<br/><br/><br/>Biomedical engineering components are found in a vast and ever increasing range of products; from Artificial organs, Biomaterials & regenerative engineering, Computer simulation for surgery and Image-guided robot surgery, to products for Independent living, Medical imaging, Neurotechnology, Orthopaedic implants, Tissue engineering and much more.<br/><br/>Although most teaching is through traditional lectures and practical classes, active learning methodologies are being introduced to many postgraduate modules to enhance the learning experience.<br/><br/>Assessment will take place through written examinations and continuous learning exercises. Many of the modules require students to develop skills in independent learning.
