MEng (Hons) Biomedical Engineering with a placement year in Hull United Kingdom | University of Hull

Biomedical engineering focuses on creating medical technologies, especially in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine for repairing or renewing cells, tissues, and organs. Combining online learning platforms with conventional instruction, you'll master the methods to address these intricate challenges.

You'll gain direct experience with medical equipment like endoscopes and ultrasound machines. You'll evaluate biomaterials and medical devices, including prosthetic limbs and orthopedic supports. You'll develop skills in recording physiological data using EMG and ECG techniques. Laboratory dissection sessions will provide comprehensive knowledge of human anatomy and potential surgical engineering complications. Additionally, you'll complete rotations in nearby hospitals to observe biomedical engineering applications firsthand.

Alongside our standard three-year program, we provide extended four- and five-year alternatives. Options include an integrated work placement, a combined Master's degree (MEng), or both. Similar to all our engineering programs, Biomedical Engineering begins with a shared foundational year, allowing you to transfer to another specialization in your second year if desired.
