Subject

Biomedical engineering

Join an interdisciplinary engineering degree that draws on the medical and healthcare expertise that Edge Hill has to offer. Developing your skills and knowledge through practical applications, you’ll be ready to begin your career in a rapidly growing industry.

Biomedical engineering is an exciting area of growing demand and so we’ve designed our BEng honours degree to meet the academic requirements to achieve Incorporate Engineer (IEng) status (accreditation currently pending).

Studying with us, you’ll learn about cell biology, medical robotics and image processing. Plus, we’ll help you develop the skills you’ll need to succeed as a biomechanical engineering professional, helping you to build your employability and become work-ready by the end of the course.

You’ll graduate with an in-depth understanding of the different facets of biomedical engineering, and with an engineering qualification you’ll be in high demand from graduate employers.

Modules

Assessment methods

The methods of assessment vary from module to module and may consist of coursework, portfolios and exams. We want you to develop the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team, therefore assessment includes both of these forms, though the emphasis is strongly on individual work.
