Course content

Warwick School of Engineering has a unique systems approach to biomedical research and teaching. Our MSc Biomedical Engineering delivers advanced modules developed across disciplines incorporating biomedical signal processing, medical imaging, predictive modelling, medical device design, electronics, communication, software, hardware, systems thinking and machine intelligence.

In addition, you will be assigned an in-depth individual project, which will allow you to work closely with an academic on state-of-the-art biomedical engineering research and innovation, often linked with industry, and with cutting-edge areas of application across the biomedical field.

The course prepares students for careers in advanced biomedical engineering. This includes biomedical engineering research institutions, medical device manufacturers, medical device regulators, and clearly hospitals, where biomedical engineers oversee medical device clinical trials, purchasing and maintenance as responsible for clinical engineering services.
