To help you to become a bioengineer of the future, we work closely with industry to ensure you are as well-prepared as possible for a career in this exciting and rewarding industry.

We’ll teach you to become an effective problem solver by combining your biomedical engineering skills with a detailed knowledge of mechanical and electronic engineering, human performance and biomedicine.

We’ll give you the opportunity to take part in our industry Grand Challenge, whilst studying Masters level modules in your final year. This provides the balance of advanced knowledge and practical skills employers demand.

You’ll benefit from excellent teaching. We are in the top 10 in the UK for teaching quality in general engineering (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021).
