Biomedical Engineering

About this course

Biomedical engineering applies the principles of engineering and physical science to the challenges of medicine and biology. It is a discipline born from the recognition that many of the most important problems in healthcare, from understanding how the heart pumps blood to designing a prosthetic limb or building a diagnostic scanner, are fundamentally engineering problems. Biomedical engineers work at the intersection of clinical need and technical innovation, developing the devices, materials and systems that modern medicine depends on. At the University of Hull, the four-year full-time degree builds your understanding of engineering fundamentals alongside the biological and physiological knowledge you need to apply them in a medical context. You will study areas including biomechanics, biomaterials, medical imaging, signal processing and the design of medical devices. The programme in
