Academic Courses

BSc/BE in Physiology and Electrical & Computer Systems Engineering

A combined degree course in Physiology and Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering with extensive clinical exposure. The course produces graduates with an in-depth knowledge of engineering, physiology, the biomedical instrumentation manufacturing industry and clinical engineering practice in hospitals. The course structure includes both second and third year Physiology, and a full Electrical & Computer Systems Engineering course, with a set of Biomedical Engineering subjects in place of the normal option subjects.

BSc/BE in Physiology and other branches of Engineering

These are primarily administered by the other departments, but some information is available here.

Graduate Certificate of Biomedical Engineering

Aimed at graduates from non-biomedical Engineering courses, comprising 24 credit points of mixed undergraduate and postgraduate Biomedical Engineering subjects, with articulation into the Postgraduate Diploma.

Postgraduate Diploma of Biomedical Engineering

Aimed at graduates from non-biomedical Engineering courses, comprising 48 credit points of mixed undergraduate and postgraduate Biomedical Engineering subjects.

Master of Biomedical Engineering.

Aimed at Engineering graduates from courses other than Biomedical Engineering, comprising 48 credit points of postgraduate Biomedical Engineering subjects and thesis work.

Graduate Studies by Research (MEngSci and PhD)

Research students normally enrol for a Master of Engineering Science (by major thesis), and then convert to a PhD degree (see Doctoral handbook) after about a year if appropriate, and agreeable to both student and supervisor.
