Overview

This Biomedical Engineering (Hons) programme at University of Kent is an exciting, interdisciplinary course at the interface between engineering, biology and medicine.

In the first year, you gain a broad grounding in biomedical engineering, including human physiology, biomedical skills, robotics and engineering mathematics. You also undertake laboratory-based practical work.

In the second year and final years, you study modules that build upon the material learnt in the first year. As your knowledge grows, you discover which areas particularly interest you, so that in your final year you can specialise in preparation for your final-year design or development-based engineering project.
