About the programme
The MSc Biomedical Engineering offered at The University of Hull will cover every step in the process of designing a medical device from concept design and material selection, through analysis and optimisation, to regulatory approval.
This programme has first-hand practical experience of medical device development and we will mentor you as you develop your own ideas. Gain valuable experience of working with either the NHS or other relevant employers as we have built strong partnerships to drive innovation and excellence.
Access up-to-the-minute biomaterials, biomechanics and physiological measurement testing equipment as well as scanning technology including CT, ultrasound and laser.
The University has taken the unusual step of becoming ISO accredited, which means our work reaches industry standards. We commit to making important breakthroughs.
