Biomaterials Engineers apply their knowledge of engineering to biology. They design, develop and test products for the benefit of society. For example, implantable devices such as pacemakers and artificial joints must be biocompatible whilst also carrying out complex engineering functions.

The course has been designed to develop versatile materials scientists and engineers. It leans towards industrial sectors such as healthcare, regenerative medicine, and medical devices. The skills and flexibility also give you relevance in the industries of aerospace, automotive, power generation and manufacturing, amongst many others.

You will have access to STEMLab, a state-of-the-art, £17 million investment designed to advance and develop your learning and our other world-class processing and characterisation facilities.
