Biomedical Engineering with Foundation Year

About this course

Biomedical engineering applies engineering principles to problems in medicine and biology, developing the devices, systems and materials that diagnose, monitor and treat illness and injury. Prosthetic limbs, imaging equipment, pacemakers, dialysis machines, surgical robots and wearable health sensors are all products of biomedical engineering, and the field is one of the most innovative and fastest-growing areas of both engineering and healthcare. It requires practitioners who can think across the boundary between engineering and medicine, combining technical design capability with an understanding of human physiology and clinical need. At the University of Hull this four-year programme, which includes a foundation year, develops that cross-disciplinary capability from the ground up. The foundation year provides a supported entry into engineering education, building the mathematical and
