生物学和医学领域的新发现和发展已导致生物技术研究和工业的快速变化和发展。生物医学工程弥合了技术，医学和生物学之间的鸿沟。它整合了物理，化学，数学和计算科学与工程原理，最终目的是改善医疗保健。该学位始于工程，数学，生物学和物理学的预科课程的广泛基础，然后是更高级的课程和实验室培训，将工程分析和设计技术与细胞和组织的生物学和生理学相结合。该计划以项目为重点，包括在第四年的一个全年项目，以发展个人设计和研究技能，这种方法受到雇主的重视。生物医学工程专业的毕业生可能会参与健康和监视设备以及计算机，诊断系统和治疗系
New discoveries and developments in biology and medicine have led to the rapid change and growth of biotechnology research and industry. Biomedical Engineering bridges the gap between technology, medicine and biology. It integrates physical, chemical, mathematical and computational sciences and engineering principles with the ultimate aim of improving health care. The degree commences with a broad foundation of preparatory courses in engineering, mathematics, biology and physics, followed by more advanced coursework and laboratory training, combining engineering analysis and design techniques with biology and physiology of cells and organisations. The program is project-focussed including a full-year project in fourth year to develop individual design and research skills, an approach valued by employers. Graduates of biomedical engineering may be involved in the design, construction and development of health and monitoring devices and computers, diagnostic systems and therapeutic systems. They may also work with models of physiological function and prosthetics and implants.
