About this degree
You will develop an advanced knowledge of topics in biomaterials and tissue engineering, alongside an awareness of the context in which healthcare engineering operates. This includes safety, environmental, social and economic aspects. You will also gain a wide range of intellectual, practical and transferable skills necessary for a career in this field.
Who this course is for
As an interdisciplinary programme, we attract physical science, engineering and life sciences graduates, including those with medicine qualifications.
What this course will give you
There are internationally renowned research groups in biomaterials and bioengineering in UCL Engineering and you will have access to a state-of-the-art research portfolio.
UCL Mechanical Engineering has a range of research laboratories which enhance the study of biomaterials and tissue engineering. There are six biomaterials and bioengineering laboratories, set up with funding from the Royal Society and Wolfson Foundation. A biomaterials processing and forming laboratory is also available in the Materials Hub in the Engineering Building.
The programme is also delivered by leading researchers across UCL's Division of Medicine, Eastman Dental Institute, the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and visiting experts from other UK organisations.
This programme is delivered by leading researchers from across UCL, as well as a variety of industrial experts. You will have a range of opportunities to network and keep abreast of emerging ideas in biomaterials and tissue engineering. Collaborating with companies and bodies such as the NHS, JRI Orthopaedics and Orthopaedics Research (UK) is key to our success.
We equip our graduates with the skills and confidence needed to play a creative and leading role in the professional and research community. Our employability activities include employer-led events and individual coaching. Throughout the programme, you will also be encouraged to develop networks within the department and more widely across UCL.
