Overview
As well as supporting clinical staff, personnel and financial governance of medical equipment, ranging from the analysis and reporting on incidents involving medical devices to the assessment of new technologies, is also a vital need of the constantly growing healthcare sector.
Studying the Biomedical Engineering offered at the Aston University, you will also have the opportunity to complete several clinical and manufacturing visits designed to inspire innovation and entrepreneurship. We are partners in the Medical Device Testing and Evaluation centre (MD-TEC) based in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Your future career prospects
The interface between engineering and healthcare is a growing area of industrial need with a wide range of career options with global opportunities for graduates. Combining science, medicine and technology, biomedical engineers are the natural figures in designing and manufacturing practices, commercial development as well as in technology management for the healthcare sector.
Accreditation
Both the BEng and MEng programmes are accredited by the IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers).
Additionally, the MEng programme meets the academic requirement in full for Chartered Engineer registration.
