Key Summary
Applications are open. Join our live webinar to explore the Master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering at Centrale Méditerranée. Discover the program structure, specializations, internships, and career opportunities. Interact live with the academic team d
Environmental, biological, or human systems, which lie at the core of current major challenges, are “complex systems” whose overall behavior is controlled by the interactions of all its multiple elements.
Understanding, modeling, and handling such systems require specific skills that students will acquire through the exceptional academic and applied training environment of this Master’s program. lt will provide you with a rich interdisciplinary educational experience in biomedical engineering and prepare you for a professional career in optimal conditions.
Beyond the wide academic knowledge gathered, you will also enrich yourselves with a broad range of experiences:
- Labs/companies visits, seminars...
- Soft-skills and management courses
- Up to 10 months of work & research placements (projects, clinical/research/ company internships...)
- A multicultural international experience in southern France & Learning the French language
This Master’s degree aims at training bicultural engineers with strong and broad scientific & technical skills, coupled with solid experience in management, innovation & research.
Program Highlights
- A full-time 2-year Master's program (140 ECTS / 1150h)
- 100% taught in English
- Courses are delivered on the Campus of Centrale Méditerranée in Marseille, and online.
- The program includes more than 8 months of internship in Laboratories or Companies, in France or abroad.

Eligibility: international students never enrolled in a higher education institution in France and not of French nationality
NB : Being awarded a TIGER scholarship does not exempt students from paying tuition fees when they register at Centrale Méditerannée.
For the 2024/2025 academic year, the application for the TIGER master's excellence scholarship is made automatically when you apply for the MScT CSE.
In a context of life expectancy increase, new pandemic threats, climate change, and exhaustion of fossil resources, biotechnologies represent hope to address these crucial challenges. At the crossroads of engineering and life sciences, bioengineering brings a new paradigm as well as innovative solutions for issues on health, disability inclusion, sustainable production, reduction of the ecological footprint, or even innovative modes of power production.
Living matter is characterized by a high level of complexity that comes from its multiscale & dynamic organization. The Centrale Méditerranée Master's track in Biomedical engineering addresses such complexity of life and major future challenges by covering a large number of topics related to biomedical engineering:
- Multiphysics and multiscale tissues & systems modeling,
- Quantitative imaging for diagnosis and therapy, imaging techniques & devices,
- Bioinformatics/statistics, data science & machine learning, signal & image processing,
- Material sciences and biomechanics, CAD & design of medical devices,
- Biotechnologies, bioprocesses & chemical therapy.
