Key Summary

    About : The M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering focuses on the intersection of medical science and engineering principles. This program will equip you with the skills needed to design and develop innovative medical devices and systems to improve healthcare. You’ll engage in hands-on projects and research, enhancing your practical and theoretical knowledge over two years of study.
    Career Outcomes : Graduates of this program can pursue careers as biomedical engineers, clinical engineers, or research and development specialists in hospitals, medical device companies, or research institutions. They may also work in regulatory affairs or contribute to healthcare technology advancement.

The recent rapid progress in the natural sciences and in engineering has enabled the use of engineering tools to answer many questions that have troubled humanity since its very beginnings. Ultra-fast and ultra-powerful supercomputers, the mapping of the human genome, interfaces that connect directly to the brain, nanotechnology-driven molecular-sized implants, and fast internet-based communication technologies are but a few of the many new technologies that are quickly becoming widely available.

Students in the Department of Biomedical Engineering receive extensive training in both the medical and engineering fields. The aim is to train engineers who will be able to conduct and lead research and development projects in both the University research environment and the dynamic high-tech world, as well as to develop and provide support for engineering equipment in hospitals. Responsibility for training biomedical engineers is shared by the Faculties of Health Sciences and Engineering. Students take courses in both faculties, gaining broad basic knowledge, as well as more specific skills in those areas that are essential for a biomedical engineer.

The M.Sc. program is a two-year thesis (research) track Program.
