Biomedical engineering is a dynamic, multidisciplinary field that links engineering and medicine to improve human health and quality of life. It’s a field where you can make a real impact, using cutting-edge technology to develop innovations that help people live longer, healthier and happier lives. The Biomedical Engineering BEng course prepares you to be at the forefront of the rapidly growing medical technology sector, developing your skills and knowledge to create innovative solutions that can save and improve lives. This well-established course helps you build a strong foundation in engineering principles, while equipping you with the skills to design, innovate and improve medical technologies. You’ll gain hands-on experience and knowledge that will empower you to make a real impact through advanced biomedical solutions. Our expert academic team, composed of industry experts, clinicians and academics, has been teaching biomedical engineering at Sheffield for over a decade. They will show you how both traditional and contemporary engineering principles can be applied to transform healthcare, integrating diverse engineering disciplines to develop innovative solutions that improve health and quality of life. In your first year, you’ll gain a solid foundation in both engineering and the underpinning sciences. You’ll study the structure and function of the human body alongside fundamental engineering principles, learning how engineering concepts are applied to medicine and biology. In year two, you choose one of two pathways that align with your interests. Pathway A leads to either the Biomedical Engineering or Medical Devices and Systems final-year routes, while Pathway B leads to Biomanufacturing or Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering. Alongside pathway-specific modules in year two, you’ll continue to build core skills in biomechanics of the human body, mechatronics, data-driven design, and machine learning, while gaining experience in laboratories and collaborative design projects.
