MSc Biomedical Engineering

Studying an MSc in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Strathclyde, you'll be learning at a multi-award-winning academic institution - the only one to have won Times Higher Education University of the Year award twice.

The postgraduate taught Masters's degree is a modular conversion course that provides broad training in biomedical engineering to help you progress with a career in research, industry or the NHS.

We bring together engineering, medicine and the life and physical sciences to enable the development of relevant clinical and industrial research.

The programme explores advances in technology and engineering to generate applications and solutions to clinically relevant problems.

As part of the course, you’ll visit local clinical centres and attend lectures from industrialists and visiting experts from the UK and overseas. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet our many industrial and clinical partners to help advise and further your career.

Academic requirements

Typically, a first-class or second-class honours degree (or international equivalent) in engineering, physical science, life science, medicine, or a profession allied to medicine.

For candidates with other qualifications or who may benefit from a more extended study period, the MSc can be undertaken over 24 months.

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
