Biomedical Engineering

About this course

Biomedical engineering applies the principles and problem-solving approaches of engineering to the design of devices, systems, and processes that improve health and healthcare. It is a discipline that sits at the interface of engineering and medicine, producing the diagnostic equipment, prosthetics, surgical instruments, imaging systems, and monitoring devices that are central to modern clinical practice. As healthcare systems become more technology-dependent and the demand for personalised medicine grows, the importance of people who can think as both engineers and biomedical scientists increases. At the University of York, this three-year full-time programme develops your knowledge across electronic, electrical, mechanical, and mechatronic principles, applying them to engineering challenges that have direct relevance to health and society. You will work on group engineering design and
