BEng Biomedical Engineering with Foundation Year

This program is only for UK students

Biomedical engineering is an exciting field that merges engineering, medicine, and biology to tackle some of the toughest health challenges we face. Whether it's creating life-saving devices or pushing the boundaries of digital health and tissue regeneration, biomedical engineers are essential in revolutionizing patient care and driving medical innovation forward.

• The 4-year integrated degree program kicks off with a 1-year Foundation year, followed by a 3-year undergraduate degree. 
• This course is perfect for those who might not have met the usual entry requirements.
• During the Foundation year, students dive into essential mathematics tailored for a Biomedical Engineering degree, setting them up for various undergraduate engineering courses, including Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and more.

Once they meet the progression criteria, they can seamlessly transition into Year 1 of their chosen program.
The teaching approach is diverse, featuring lectures, workshops, group projects, and seminars, with a typical workload of around 40 hours each week.

Additional support is available through personal tutors, peer mentoring, and a student-staff liaison committee.

While the Foundation year is assessed through summative assessments, it's worth noting that these results don’t affect the final degree classification.
