About this course

What will I learn?

This exciting programme provides a grounding in the practical application of engineering principles and design concepts to healthcare technologies. It draws on the research strengths of UCL and its excellent links to local hospitals, and prepares graduates to work in a wide range of technology areas from imaging and diagnosis to monitoring and treatment. Academic lectures are supported by practical problem-solving tasks which develop understanding of teamwork, the design process and communication. We have close links to several major teaching hospitals and our staff work side-by-side with doctors and health professionals. Their expert knowledge will directly benefit your lectures and teaching sessions. Most biomedical engineering classes are small (fewer than 35 students) providing you with an informal, interactive teaching environment in which you can easily raise questions. Our department scored highly (89%) for overall satisfaction in the 2016 National Student Survey). The programme is highly interdisciplinary, drawing not only from the highly rated UCL Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering, but also from a range of engineering and science subjects across UCL Engineering.
