BEng in Biomedical Engineering

Dublin City University

When you study Biomedical Engineering, you not only learn how the body works and becomes injured, but you come to understand how medical devices are developed to treat injuries and disease, and how we can help the body heal itself. You’ll use state-of-the-art labs and tools such as 3D simulations and machine learning as you study. If you’re creative, analytical, inquisitive, and innovative, and keen to work in a fast-growing field with real human impact, this could be the course for you. You’ll get biological and medical knowledge, and technical engineering expertise, so you can solve problems in biomedicine. You’ll study advanced biology, biomaterials, biomechanics, tissue engineering, medical device design, surgical technology, rehabilitation engineering and much more besides. In third year, you’ll do a 6-to-10-month INTRA work placement to put what you’ve learned into practice. And you can also opt to study abroad. Both the healthcare and medical devices industry have strong demand for qualified graduate engineers. Typically, our graduates end up working as biomedical engineers, consultants, research and development engineers or data scientists.
