BEng Biomedical Engineering (in partnership with KMITL)

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Glasgow

Program Overview

Biomedical Engineering is all about connecting the dots between engineering and medical science to come up with groundbreaking healthcare solutions. At KMITL, the curriculum is a unique blend of bio, chemical, mechanical, electronic, and software engineering, all intertwined with medical and pharmaceutical sciences.

Some key areas of focus include creating diagnostic and therapeutic devices like prostheses, implants, and EKGs, as well as diving into tissue and genetic engineering, drug development, medical imaging, and health IT systems.

The 4-year BEng program (with an option for MEng) is structured as follows:

  • Years 1 & 2: You’ll tackle the core KMITL curriculum.
  • Year 3: You’ll explore advanced topics such as biomechanics, fluid mechanics, medical imaging, and biological sciences.
  • Year 4: BEng students will work on an individual project, while MEng students will kick off a multidisciplinary group project.
  • Year 5 (for MEng only): You’ll engage in a research project based in industry, a hospital, or a university setting.

Biomedical Engineering is an exciting and rapidly expanding field, fueled by the constant demand for innovative healthcare technologies.

Tuition fee for the first 2 years is 90,000 Baht.

 

Experiential Learning (Research, Projects, Internships etc.)

In your fourth year of the BEng program, you'll dive into an individual project that makes up a significant one-third of your studies.

  • If you choose the MEng path, you'll switch gears and participate in a multidisciplinary group design project during your fourth year.
  • The MEng option extends your studies to five years.
  • In that fifth year, MEng students engage in a comprehensive, research-focused project—often in collaboration with industry, a hospital, or another university. You'll also tackle advanced modules covering topics like energy in biological systems, advanced imaging and therapy, scaffolds and tissue engineering, computational modeling, dynamics, and materials.

Progression & Future Opportunities

  • Pursue a career in medical device development, clinical engineering, biomechanics, biomaterials, rehabilitation engineering, or pharmaceutical technology.
  • Opportunities in industries such as healthcare, medical imaging, diagnostics, prosthetics, and wearable health technologies.

  • Further academic study through taught master's degrees (e.g., MSc Biomedical Engineering, MSc Medical Physics), research degrees (MPhil/PhD), or medical school entry for qualified candidates.

  • Potential to register as a Chartered Engineer (CEng) with an accredited MEng or appropriate combination of BEng and MSc, enhancing professional standing.

  • Entrepreneurial opportunities in health-tech startups or innovation hubs focused on biomedical solutions.
