Biomedical Engineeering

About this course

Biomedical engineering applies engineering principles to the challenges of healthcare and medicine, creating technologies that transform the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of disease. It is the discipline behind medical imaging systems, prosthetic limbs, heart valves, drug delivery devices, wearable health monitors, and the computational tools that model physiological systems. Biomedical engineers must understand both the engineering principles that underpin device design and the biological and clinical contexts in which those devices will be used, making the field one of the most genuinely interdisciplinary in engineering. At Exeter this three-year full-time programme is available with a foundation year, making it accessible to students who need additional scientific and mathematical preparation before beginning the main degree. The programme has been developed in close partnersh
