Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics

About

The areas of Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics at TUM are focused on the improvement and development of novel imaging modalities for microscopy and biomedical imaging as well as on the development of biosensor technology for Lab-On-Chip technology. Other examples include the application of artificial intelligence for the analysis of medical data, the improvement of therapeutic methods, the development of tracers or methods to support radiotherapy, as well as various biomedical applications of biomechanics and biophysics to the broad field of biomedical engineering.

For a comprehensive description of the program, please refer to the degree program documentation.

The main focus of this interdisciplinary study program is the application of new research-driven natural and engineering principles and findings in both medicine and life sciences in order to develop new methods for prevention, diagnosis and therapy.
