BEng (Hons) Biomedical Engineering

The Biomedical Engineering BEng programme at Queen Mary University of London is a three year full-time course that emphasizes the application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field. This course combines traditional engineering expertise with the understanding of biological processes on various levels to provide an enhanced education in the design and manufacture of biomaterials, artificial organs, and medical imaging systems.Course Content: The Biomedical Engineering BEng programme is designed to provide an understanding of the body as a mechanical structure, the nature of biomaterials and their role in implant design, the physiological function of the body, and the incorporation of microcomputer technology in the design and analysis of biomedical systems. Students will gain a deep understanding of biomechanics, medical imaging systems, implant design, computer applications in medicine, and regenerative medicine.Key Modules: During the three years of the course, students will study modules like Energy, Materials and Devices, Biomedical Engineering Projects, Biomaterials, Biomechanical Modelling, Medical Imaging, and Clinical Engineering, amongst others.Accreditations: The Biomedical Engineering BEng programme is accredited by the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IoM3) on behalf of the Engineering Council.Future Careers: Graduates of the Biomedical Engineering BEng programme often find employment in the medical device industry, NHS Trusts, health and safety agencies, and medical supply companies. They also often pursue further study at postgraduate level, leading to careers in academia and research.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
