The new full-time course Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering – Biomechanics offered as an interfaculty programme of the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery starts in October 2019, and spread over 4 semesters (2 years).
This course will provide students with multi-disciplinary scientific knowledge in engineering, biomedical and scientific fields required for the complete understanding, analysis and advancement of Biomedical Engineering with particular emphasis to health care. The heterogeneous cohort of students - engineers, medics, scientist and health care graduate, will be provided with all necessary skills, to augment and advance their capacity thereby providing a platform for collaborative work in the multidisciplinary area of biomedical engineering.
The programme is based on the expansion of engineering skills applied to biological systems that will encourage the innovative and creative approach to problem solving.

During the first semester, all students will learn the basic principles of biomedical engineering in a modular unit that combines the necessary missing skills and knowledge according to the UG specialization of the student. Their knowledge will expand in subjects related to biomechanics together with research methods, ethics and regulatory issues applied in biomedical field. Except of this academic multidisciplinary content, the course will provide an opportunity to develop a common language that will improve the communication between the two diametrically different fields - medicine & engineering.
Students completing this programme shall develop an understanding of the latest research and concepts of medical and health care, together with newest digital technologies and theories applied in the health care systems. Abilities gained during the course are generic skills that do not apply only to the field of biomedical engineering; they can be transferred to any other engineering and medical activities.
Online application for the programme is now open.
