Overview

Medical Engineering is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Bioengineering, Medical and Biomedical Engineering splits the week between lectures, laboratory work and design sessions, and ends in an individual or group project. We currently work with 2 universities on this course across 2 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.

Careers opportunities

Accreditation is the thing to check before anything else on an engineering course, because it decides whether the degree counts toward chartered status later. A three year bachelor's meets part of the academic requirement; the integrated master's meets all of it.
