Bioengineering is rooted in physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, and the life sciences. It is a multi‚Äëdisciplinary approach to the systematic, quantitative, and integrative methods of developing solutions to problems important in biology, medical research, and clinical proactive and population studies. A PhD within the Centre can be highly rewarding as the projects involve applying basic science to real problems. PhD students can either enroll at the University of Otago or a collaborating institution. We also offer Master of Applied Science and Master of Science degrees in Bioengineering, as well as Bioengineering endorsements for the Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Science. Candidates are based in one or more departments within the Division of Sciences or Health Sciences. Our academics and clinicians are active researchers and provide learning based on the latest research across four of the bioengineering activities.
