Meng Biomedical Engineering

The Biomedical Engineering MEng course at the University of Sheffield is a program that combines biology, medicine, and engineering, preparing students to design solutions to some of the most important problems in health, disease, and healthcare. The course aims to equip students with a profound understanding of human biology, alongside rigorous engineering training. Course Content: This course covers topics including designing to improve diagnosis and treatment of disease, understanding the mechanical functions of the human body, mapping brain activity, and the ethics of emerging technologies. During the course, students will undertake group projects applying their knowledge to real-world problems. Key Modules: The core modules for this course include Biomechanics and Biomaterials, Digital and Embedded Systems, Software Engineering and Modelling, Medical Electronics and E-Health, Physiology for Bioengineers, Anatomy, Pathology, Oncology and Immunology, Advanced Experimental Techniques, and more. The course includes a team project in the third year and an individual research project in the fourth year. Accreditations: This course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) as meeting the academic requirement, in part, for Chartered Engineer.Future Careers: Graduates from this program can go onto various careers, especially in the biomedical sector. They may be involved in developing devices for various medical applications, including surgical tools, artificial organs, and prostheses. They can also engage in designing computer software for medical instrumentation or healthcare delivery.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
